The Story

John Lennon J-160E Collection Acoustic Guitar Set

This would be an amazing addition to any Beatles or John Lennon afficionados guitar collection: a set of three Gibson Montana J-160E guitars built to replicate the guitar that Lennnon favored and modified throughout his career. Here we've got the Fab Four, Magical Mystery, and Bed-In guitars - the first being the original sunburst finish that was heavily played throughout the early days of the Beatles, the middle period with its psychedelic finish to go with the zany music of the Mystery Tour, and the Bed-In model which sees the guitar stripped down to natural and featuring the doodles of John and Yoko that were drawn on the guitar.

These guitars are in excellent condition: the Bed-In model has no wear on it, however the Magical Tour has some light paint checks around the body, and the Fab Four has some lacquer checks on the top. Nothing which will affect the feel or tone of the guitars. Each guitar has the original hardshell case and certificate of authenticity.

Includes: Hardshell Cases, Certificates of Authenticity
