I know it's a Gibson and a few sources say it's a 57 J-45. I looks a little small to be a J-45 but who knows. I think the pickguard is after market.

Those pick guards look like the ones on the Gibson "folk"model.

Gibson Folksinger F-25 model. The Gibson f-25 folksinger acoustic classical guitar was introduced in 1963 and stopped production in 1971 . The guitar was 14 - 1/2 " wide, most of them had double white pickguards, it had a classical body shape, flat top , mahogany back and sides, 12 frets, dot inlays, and were made in dark walnut natural finishes.
