2010 Gibson J-160E John Lennon 70th Anniversary
Recreated by the luthiers at Gibson's Montana acoustic guitar facility in period-perfect detail, the 70th Anniversary John Lennon models were made in three distinct versions to represent the instrument at three periods in Lennon's life and career.
This 2010 Vintage Sunburst model was limited to 500 guitars and represents the guitar as it was when Lennon first acquired it and used it on several famous Beatles recordings from 1963 to '64, including Please Please Me, With The Beatles and A Hard Day's Night. Additional specs of the 70th Anniversary John Lennon J-160VS include a 70th Anniversary John Lennon MOP signature on the headstock, 1960's laminated Sitka Spruce Top, mahogany back and sides, the classic vintage Sunburst lacquer finish, Jumbo 1960's Frets, Gibson authentic P-90 pickups, a historic adjustable bridge and a 70th Anniversary MOP engraved 12th Fret birthdate of John Lennon.
The guitar is in really good condition, although does have a single large blemish in the middle of the back of the guitar (see last picture). Setup with a new set of 12s the guitar has nice low action and sounds great both acoustically and plugged in - comes complete with its original Gibson hard case – the case is missing one of its latches.
