Description
Gibson's J-160E, famous in the hands of both John Lennon and George Harrison - and the ambidextrous Paul McCartney. The acoustic behind so many of those early Beatles hits - and a fair few famous guitarists since then. An absolute original, and a beauty to behold and play. This one's from 1963, the year after John and George bought their first J-160Es. The same build and spec. Totally original, nice slim neck and low set-up, electrics all working perfectly. It does bear the dents and scratches that you'd expect from a guitar that's over 60 years old, but just sounds superb, whether plugged in or purely acoustic. Happy to include a support pack at no extra cost, with: - Hercules Mini Stand - Strap - Clip-on Tuner - Cleaning Cloth - Complimentary Plectrums. Happy to meet personally in London to hand over. And if this isn't the one for you, check out my other guitar, amp and pedal listings!

Ryan F borrowed 1990 Gretsch White Falcon Hollowbody Guitar

Sam F borrowed 1972 Fender Precision Bass Guitar, Classic Sunburst
Fantastic experience from start to finish. Iain was incredibly helpful, polite and enthusiastic, and even provided an extra bag of useful tools, including a clip-on tuner. The 1972 Fender Precision Bass and amp were in pristine condition, sounded incredible and genuinely elevated our rehearsal session. Excellent service all round – I’ll absolutely be hiring from Iain again.
