The white one looks like a older-model Guild of some sort:

Tony Sales played a BC Rich Mockingbird with Iggy. closeup at 0.45;

he also used a BC Rich with Tin Machine, and then Vigier.

the bassist in the second clip was Glen Matlock- on a Gibson EB0 with the earlier Les Paul junior shape.
I'm not sure who the guy playing the Guild was, but I don't think it was Sales.

That's Michael Page on the Guild bass. He was with Iggy for about 5 years in the 80's. Saw him with Iggy in '82 and loved his solid playing on a early P-bass.

Back in the 70's when the Sales bro's backed Iggy (the tour that Bowie played keys) I think he used a p-bass thru an SVT. Check out the Sister Midnight live cd - awesome bass playing.
