George Harrison '63 360/12 (pics) @ Grammy Museum

I just went there today. This is way better than seeing Lennon's "325" 12-string in Cleveland years ago at the Hall of Fame. Cool thing: one of the lyrics exhibits shows that the way George wrote "bridge" does indeed look like "badge." Thanks for the photos; I would have paid a fair sum for a booklet of them at the gift shop.

That's not the chord... i hope this will do.

I'm going to save this, Greg, it's an iconic picture. Hope you don't mind.

You wouldn't happen to have a larger one of this one, too?



Like ED 774, George's McGuinn LE is another Ric I've often wondered about. A McGuinn sounds like no other Ric to me, and I can clearly hear it all over a number of Wilburys songs (especially Vol. 3's "Seven Deadly Sins"). I also wonder how it would've gone down if George had played it on the '91 Japan tour instead of the gold Fender XII on "If I Needed Someone".

Maybe you'll appreciate this, Greg, I recently got the Dark Horse Years 1976-1992 box set for Christmas, and have been breaking it in. My only complaint is if the rejected songs from Somewhere In England were on that CD. The bonus DVD is nice, but the video for Blow Away is missing. I'd also like to see Live In Japan on DVD.

NICE !~!

The Dark Horse years DVD have only these Japan tracks:

1. Taxman
2. Cloud 9
3. Devil's Radio
4. Cheer Down

Unfortunate that this never came to North America.
Hopefully one day a full release of more songs from the Japan tour comes out on DVD.

ENjoy GH !

Dhani H and "friends" have come up with iPad iPhone ap. You guys will freak out.
360 rotatable photos in amazing detail and it won't be much longer now..

Enjoy !

What's the app going to be called and when will it be available?

[JakeK]

George's official website is advertising the new app as a feature on that site, too.

[greg_feo]

true true...

[bosco64]

I tried searching for the app in the App Store, but I can't find it...

[Melma]

needing a neck reset... yikes

[leftybass]

needing a neck reset... yikes

I had heard this a few years ago about it's playability......well, it could be corrected if they wanted to, without a neck reset.....

[Ivan3000]

needing a neck reset... yikes

I'd still play it!

[JakeK]

Probably cos of the Pyramids!

[egosheep]

It's kind of weird that they included the reflections on some of the angles. Wouldn't it be better if the guitar could be seen in the same lighting on every viewing angle?

[greg_feo]

Need to ask Dhani Harrison about that.
