I would think it was an F-512, US made, either vintage or Oxnard. Pete’s been playing Guild 12 strings since ‘71, both an F-612 and 512.In NYC at MSG.
Simon Townsend played a Guild 12 string acoustic on 2 songs. I think it was 1512.
They were really, really good and Pete still has the best right and in rock.
If it’s that Equipboard page, I’m dubious. The one newer pic looks like a black overlay, and the other pic shows him with hair, which he hasn’t had for years. Those are visitor submitted responses, so no real oversight.Not a 512... had a chesterfield and not a G-shield. I looked up Simon Townsend's guitars on google and the 1512 came up. Kind of surprised me.
Pete & Roger have never been friends…but my understanding is they get along quite well these days. Part of that involves each not getting up the other's nose. Keep it professional and all goes well. For example, Pete lets Roger work up the setlists and take the lead on most other touring details. Pete just shows up & plays guitar. In recording the upcoming Who album Pete did all the detail work, while Roger showed up in the studio & sang.

Part of the show was just Roger and Pete, Pete playing his Gibson Dove. They played Won't Get Fooled Again this way and sounded great together.
Dove? He usually plays an SJ-200 - Gibson even made a Pete Townshend SJ-200 Signature model and Pete hand signed the first 50 labels.
Jon Button with his Fender bass. Best visible in this video like after minute 2:03: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVP4--DbHA4Who’s on bass?
