Or, at least, the one he played briefly in '63.
Or, at least maybe this is it.
Well, the money they're asking is real. And serious.

Wow. Ringo really looks scruffy in the auction page pics.

In the past, Susan Cooper has not been known to be strong with authentication nor provenance. This one has a pretty good story but I am always wary that these can be nothing more than look-a-likes.
If it's the real thing, Olivia will buy it, just as she has won 3 or more of George's guitars in past auctions.

Really! Which ones has she purchased?
Good to see you posting Mike. You must be busy.

Brian, she bought the telecaster from the "Let it Be" era. This was a guitar he gave to Delany Bramlett and he auctioned it off as he needed the money. Had several changes and still brought over $500K! She also bought the Gibson SG for a similar number. I think there was another one too. She is alerted on these and always has someone bid for her.

Bless her heart, glad to hear good news about one of "their" Mrs.
Can't imagine selling a guitar given to me by George Harrison. I'd sell the house first.
Be real tough to take money from the family who gave me the thing. Hope old Delany can sleep at night, I could not.
