Up for sale is a 1967 Gibson J-160E in its original sunburst finish. John Lennon famously used this model to write and record many hits for The Beatles in their early years. Songs such as “I Want to Hold Your Hand” “She Loves You” and “All My Love” were written using a J-160E. This jumbo acoustic is known for its special P-90 pick up that is built into the body of the guitar. Specs: This example has a adjustable rosewood bridge with a wooden saddle (very, very minor bridge lift), 1 9/16th nut width. Mahogany Neck with a depth measuring .83 at the first fret and 1.04 at the 12th fret. 24.75 Scale length. Bound rosewood finger board with a 12 radius. Nice and mellow tone that is evenly balanced and sounds sweet. The P-90 sounds rad, nothing but vintage tone. If you’re a Beatles fan or just need a great vintage rhythm machine this is the guitar for you. Comes complete with a non original soft chip case. Weight: 5lbs. 0oz.

NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:

We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage products as accurately as possible in our listings.  Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so.  We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument.  Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing. 

We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear.  If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us at the Shop for a complete in-hand description and to answer any questions you may have.  Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
