I see a Strat in the pic, but no Tele. Unless I'm missing something.

On the wall, lowest row, far right. Obscured by the acoustics. Dark Tele, possibly rosewood, hard to tell from that photo.

After he died, it was given back to Olivia Harrison.

There have been stories about the Rosewood Tele. It was given away after the Delaney, Bonnie & Friends outing. In more recent years, it has been up for sale several times with several near-sales. One of the potential buyers was the owner of my local vintage shop, as he is very well-versed in dealing with these guitars. He's done business with quite a few of the big ones: Keith, Ronnie, et al.

I thought the Rosewood was auctioned a few years ago for about half a million?
Edit...just read the article (link) above...Rosewood bought at auction and returned home.
