I now think that the blonde one is a Westbury Performer. There is a Westbury Standard Facebook page and there is one amongst the photos in there which has the same control layout and is described as a Performer.

What's the original bridge look like, a typical LP Jr. compensated stop?

If it's the one I'm attaching here, that's also a replacement bridge (Schaller, I think). Thanks for the link, I'll take a closer look soon.
