No, according to my source it was built for this lady

It certainly is a converted Cushman Model 39 delivery scooter:

It could be, but my source doesn't say about the basis

Early 1950s?

Very similar but this one was built in early 1940's

Apparently, a famous house designer. As a hint, there's a famous musician (today) with the same name

I think I made a mistake doing the disambiguation of the husband name. The guy was an aircraft designer

To clarify: the husband was an aircraft designer who had the same first and last name as a current American musician, correct?

Yes, and there's also more than 10 public figures sharing his name.

Is the American musician a guitarist ?

Oguerrerob

He plays guitar among other instruments, but it's not his main one
