Looks like one of them acoustic teles.

Is that from the last Crossroads? Man, that was a great show. I'm pretty sure it wasn't a Telecoustic.

Don't know if its a match, but it looks close: Fender TLAC-950 (I think)

It's close
The one Winwood is using you can't see any pickups

I saw him a few weeks ago and he used that for acoustic type sounds. He used his strat for wailing guitar solos. he's a phenomenal guitar player, but it gets somewhat overshadowed by how friggin' great he is at other things. He did the whole show with no bass player, laying it down with his feet and left hand while playing the upper keyboard of his Hammond and singing everything in the original key. What kind of human being can do that? he played a great set which pretty much avoided his 80's beer commercial stuff. It was quite jazzy for my taste, but he eventually played "I'm A Man" so I was happy.

Steve Winwood is featured in the June Vintage Guitar magazine.

In the article they mention his use of a nylon-string Telecaster Classical Thinline - a model that Fender has since discontinued on "Can't Find My Way Home".

It's not the same guitar but, there is

a similar guitar on eBay ATM if you want some larger pics.

I thought Winwood was playing an HMT Tele. I've had one and never saw anyone playing one until that Vintage Guitar issue with Stevie. There is a string bar at the top instead of a string tree and mine has steel strings, not nylons.
