Is a 13th chord same as a 6th?

The 13th can be thought of as the same note as 6th, but the chord is not a 13 if there's no 7th. If there's only a 6th, then it's a 6 chord. If there's a 6th and a 9th but no 7th, then it's a "69" chord which is a thing in itself.

Short answer: in a music theory exam question asking what notes there are in a chord named "C13", a C13 has the notes 1,3,5,(flat)7,9,11,13, i.e. C, E, G, Bb, D, F, A. In other words, C13 is "C11add13", C11 is "C9add11", and C9 is "C7add9". However if the music exam asks how a C13 chord might actually be played in practice, then I'd say that the importance order of the notes when a C13 is written to be used as a dominant or blues chord is, from most important to least important: 7, 3, 13, 1, 9, 11, 5. It's somewhat subjective, but I think most people would agree on at least leaving out the 5th. The importance order (of which some people may disagree in some situations) comes from the role and use of the chord. There are basically two essential things that define a chord's harmonic function:

(1) is it a major or a minor (or sus4), and

(2) if it's a major chord, does it have a dominant seventh or not. (as opposed to major-7th or no seventh at all) The 13 is a "dominant chord" and it must have a flat 7th. And it's a major chord and has to have a major 3rd. The same applies to a 9 chord, it must have a flat 7th. You can use a 13 chord or a 9 chord as a thicker and jazzier dominant-seventh chord. The 13th can be thought of as the same note as 6th, but the chord is not a 13 if there's no 7th. If there's only a 6th, then it's a 6 chord. If there's a 6th and a 9th but no 7th, then it's a "69" chord which is a thing in itself. Why do I say the 1 i.e. the root of the chord is only fourth-most important note? It's because the root can often be implied or imagined because of other things, and it's not a so important as a harmony changer. And as a starting point here we have been given a 13 chord! Depending on the style of music you're doing, you might as well consider the root as the most important note. Maybe in some very basic pop you would use just roots instead, but then you would not have 13 chords either. Here's some rootless blues where 13 chords are played with only the first three notes from my priority list. Root notes are left out deliberately to demonstrate what it sounds like if you leave out root notes from dominant/blues chords.

(Is it "roots" music if roots are left out?)

What guitar did Kurt Cobain use for bleach?

Univox Hi-Flier Phase 3 guitar Kurt used the Univox Hi-Flier Phase 3 guitar for the recording of Nirvana's first album, Bleach, which has a definitive raw edge. The guitar was also later featured on the cover of the Blew EP.

mopop.org - Kurt Cobain's Smashed Guitars: Univox Hi-Flier Phase 3 - MoPOP

During the Nevermind and In Utero years, Kurt Cobain's axe of choice was often a Fender Stratocaster or Mustang. He was also a fan of Mosrite guitars, though he only owned two of them in his lifetime. Mosrites were a little harder to come by, plus they weren't exactly designed with a left-handed player in mind. Long before Kurt moved on to Stratocasters and Mustangs, he played Univox guitars because of their similarity to a Mosrite. One Univox in particular can be heard in the early Nirvana years, primarily 1988-89. Kurt used the Univox Hi-Flier Phase 3 guitar for the recording of Nirvana's first album, Bleach, which has a definitive raw edge. The guitar was also later featured on the cover of the Blew EP. Kurt's Univox Hi-Flier Phase 3 guitar was used during the Bleach tour in 1989 and smashed on July 13, 1989 at Maxwell's Tavern in Hoboken, N.J. On that particular night, there were less than a dozen people in the crowd, but those lucky few had quite the surprise when Cobain began to smash it before their eyes. But don’t worry, before taking his frustrations out on the guitar, Cobain learned that his girlfriend had secured another Univox Hi-Flier for him back in the Pacific Northwest, which would be waiting for him when he returned to Washington at the end of the tour. With that in mind, the guitar was fair game that evening. Let the smashing begin!
