Guitars used by George Harrison on Beatles For Sale (Remastered)

Extended Range Guitars

Rickenbacker 360/12 12-String Hollowbody

Avg price: $2,872.67

George Harrison received a Rickenbacker 360/12 12-String Hollowbody guitar from the manufacturer in 1964, following a meeting between John Lennon and Rickenbacker. This guitar was prominently featured in many Beatles songs from 1964 onwards, most notably on "A Hard Day's Night." The guitar's whereabouts after the Beatles stopped touring remain uncertain, though it is speculated to have influenced the sound in "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," specifically the bass octaver in the choruses, though this is unconfirmed. Harrison also used this style of guitar on "Handle with Care" by the Traveling Wilburys. A photograph on Guitarstorage.com verifies his association with this iconic instrument.
