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!

Great service from Iain. Really helpful and communicative. Great range to choose from as well. Will definitely use him again in the future.

Iain was such a lovely person to rent from and his guitar was just great! The young musician who played it on an event at Goethe-Institut London was very pleased and happy!
