Thats correct  ;yes What was the last Beatles Item you bought? Not what was the last Beatles replica you bought!!!!

Hello Goodbye

I know it's correct.  Thank you.

Relax, Dirk.  Reissue guitars commemorating the Beatles who used them can be regarded as Beatles items.  They're just as valid as books, magazines, CDs, DVDs, tee shirts, posters, mugs and all the other items mentioned here.

The Hofner 500/1 bass is, after all, called a "Beatle Bass."

Hello Goodbye

I regard my Hofner 500/1 v62, Rickenbacker 360-12C63, and VOX AC30CC2X as prized Beatles items...























But my true prized possession is my 1963 Gretsch 6122 Country Gentleman...

I don't think there's anyone here who wouldn't prize those possessions Barry. And the fact that you can actually play them makes it even better! I'd just have to look at them in wonder. ;)

Thanks, Kelley.  I bought that Country Gentleman about 25 years ago when it was just another "used guitar."  It's a true collector's guitar today.  It's called "The King George Model" these days.

The Rickenbacker twelve string played through my VOX amp has that distinctive sound heard in...

The Beatles: "If I Needed Someone" Rickenbacker 360/12 C63 & Vox AC30

and...

The Beatles: "You Can't Do That" (George's part) Rickenbacker 360/12C63 & '67 Gibson Skylark amp
