This model is a modern tribute to the original 325 series, famously played by John Lennon, and is crafted to meet the needs of both vintage enthusiasts and contemporary players.

Whether you're a professional musician or an avid hobbyist, this guitar offers a blend of historical significance and modern functionality.

nice but sold/stolen
I owned this for a couple of years (1995-9), but then realized I wasn't playing much (lesson about signature reissues). I sold it to Manny's in NYC, and it was stolen from there a week later. So somewhere out there is a great guitar, with no case and no certificate of authenticity...

the neck scale is really small on this model, either the Lennon RI or the an original... it might be 24" like a jaguar or maybe smaller, I forget. Tiny and frustrating for most people.
