ACOUSTIC GUITAR PLAYED BY GEORGE
Anyone know what brand and model acoustic guitar George played at the Bangladesh concert. I have never seen it before and it certainly is not the Gibson he played in the later years of The Beatles?
Not sure in the video, but on the original recording (not the DVD, the single) he played a Gibson J-200 (or 180?). I can't remember which exactly. That was a long time ago. I was at that session, and the Gibson he used was just a rental from Modern Musical Services in Hollywood. Funny... all the attention we "fans" pay to the equipment the Beatles used---George seemed not to give a care about that guitar. He just took it out of the case, went to the piano, and tuned it up. (Leon Russell on piano) Then he started running down the tune. That was an unbelievable night for me and my buddy. We were the only two "civilians" at that session.
