Lennon played and wrote songs on this beautiful Gibson during the period of the famous Beatles retreat with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in Rishikesh, India, possibly even taking this guitar with him on the journey – one of the most tumultuous and creative periods in the band’s history, which resulted in 1968’s The White Album, one of the greatest albums ever made. Lennon later gave to Bob Dylan, who wrote, recorded and toured with the guitar himself. bignews.biz/?id=1061757&keys=Lennon-BobDylan-Guitar-Heritage
