am not an expert but would have thought you could try him on most things, bits of fruit and sticks of soft (cooked) veg, slices of pitta bread etc. Have a look on some of the threads about baby-led weaning which relies on using finger foods rather than spoon feeding.
Get hold of some organix moon biscuits, they don't have added sugar like rusks and are good to nibble on for teething boy.

banana
avocado
pitta bread & hummous
wholemeal toast & a scrape of marmite
chunks of steamed broccoli & cauli
meat balls
pasta with grated cheese
tuna or salmon fishcakes

as dolly says - finger foods....he might eat more if he has some more control over it!

Thanks for all the suggestions, have tried most already, so it looks like I'll just have to be patient and hope things improve when those teeth finally come through
