This painting not only provides a glimpse into the life of the legendary guitarist, but also a glimpse into the history of the guitar itself. Lennon used this instrument in his home studio to write songs, and his cousin David Birch has owned it since 1967. The Gretsch 6120 guitar that John Lennon used in his famous sessions with The Rolling Stones can be seen at the Hard Rock Cafe in Honolulu, Hawaii, for rock fans and music enthusiasts alike.
Lennon’s Epiphone Casino is a reminder of the impact he had on the music industry and will continue to be a source of inspiration for generations to come. Lennon used the guitar extensively during the band’s final studio sessions, and it is widely regarded as one of the most important instruments in rock and roll history. The guitar was given to Lennon by Epiphone in the late 1960s and was used on many of the Beatles’ most famous recordings.
John Lennon’s iconic Epiphone Casino guitar is currently on display at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio.
