Yes, this is the same banjo as on the cover of String Along, minus the resonator and the flanges.
Bob owned at least one other Vega plectrum, a high-end Professional Model. This model is structurally equivalent to the Pete Seeger. To see Bob with this banjo, go to Jim Moran's Comparative Video -> June 2011 -> Remembering Nick Reynolds, then scroll down to Worried Man and stop at 1:38.

Compared to the String Along album cover, it looks just like it. except for the resonator.
