That's a picture of Paul Siminon with his Jazz Bass.
I wish that Fender had bestowed this honor onto Joe while he was still alive. And maybe they tried. We don't know. I imagine that he would not have been against it though. Joe had had a change of heart regarding the licensing of Clash songs for advertisments. He figured that there were not enough people exposed to that music nowadays, and anyway to get it out there was viable. Personally I'm on the fence about this notion, but its' not my music, and it's not my decesion. I guess I'd rather have my young daughter hear "London's Burning" in a commercial for Levi's then say,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,anything else. I'm a big fan of Sturmmer as the leader of that band, and as the cult of personalitiy that he is. I'm also someone who holds Strummer in high regard for the man that he was. Godspeed Joe.
