      I heard it sold for $675,000 US. Wish I had that type of pocket change.......

        It is too funny to say that George isn't a great guitarist. I'm just going to leave it at that!

        You are not just being nice Hanna. You are absolutely correct. George was far more appealing to many people for many good reasons. I am surprised that it didn't sell for over a million dollars.

          It was insane the price it went for just me i know but i dont understand the cult of owning something that at some point in time was owned by someone famous,i'd sooner by a house for that sort of money.

            Some people just have more money than sense.

              One would think the Harrison family (Olivia, Dhani) would want to keep this guitar in the family for posterity. Does anyone know the circumstances under which it found it's way to the market?
