Muito bom 👍

Yeah the black Strat is definitely a source of curiosity. During the Rubber Soul recording sessions, Mal was sent out to get two strats for John & George and both were painted ‘Sonic Blue.’ While I’m not sure what became of John’s, I do know from books I have that George repainted his with various things (including some of Patties nail polish). Anyway, it just seems curious as to why John would have the black strat when he already had one on hand. I won’t go into conspiracy theories about what became of his prior one but we’ll probably never know the full story behind it.

I remember a picture from years ago of George with the Travelling Wilburys and they are all holding guitars. Tom Petty is holding a Country Gent! Could it be one of the missing ones? I'm sure I read somewhere that the picture was taken at George's house and they were all holding one of his guitars each just for the photo shoot. Could you track down this photo to see if you can get the serial number of the guitar?

Nice detective work, Nick. It looks more like a 5 than a 6, to me but who knows for sure. Maybe over day we'll definitely know 🤔

Now onto the 2nd 360/12, John’s Sonic Blue Strat & the gretsch’s

Excellent detective work Nick 👌 but as you know we’ve been discussing this tuner on BGC on the old Voxtalks for decades 😅

Howdy Nick 👋 Keep up the great work

I've been told that the strings the Höfner bass use, are different than those used for any other bass. It's that true?

Hilton Valantine and David Crosby both inspired me to want to save for a Gretsch Tennessean, I honestly love this guitar and its such in iconic gretsch model

Well George Harrison used his Fender Stratocaster for 90 to 95 % of the songs he played electric guitar on after receiving it in late 1964. It was his absolute main guitar from Help untill the last album. The guitar George Harrison called ” The worst guitar I have ever played ” the Rosewood Telecaster was not used on Let it be. George rerecorded his guitar parts with his Fender Stratocaster Rocky before releasing the album. The only reason George used the Rosewood Telecaster on the Rof top concert was because he knew the police was going to come and possibility take their equipment. So he took the guitar he really hated ( tThe Rosewood Telecaster ) and used that one. The police could take that one. He gave it away almost directly after the rooftop concert to Delany Bramlet Anyway. George Harrison played a Telecaster. Once in his caree for less than a week than a week before throwing it out the studio. The Fender Stratocaster though was George Harrisons absolute favourite guitar from 1956 untill he died. The reason you dont see the Beatles on stage or in videos with Stratocasters ( songs that were recorded with a Stratocaster which in Georges part was almost all) is that Fender tried to bribe the Beatles manager Brian Epstein who got furious at Fender, and forbid The Beatles to use Stratocasters in public. In the studio Brian Epstein allowed George Harrison to use the Fender Stratocaster as much as he wanted though, and George cerainly did. From the day in the end of 1964 when he finally got his belowed Fender Stratocaster untill he died George Harrison almost exclusively recorded with the Fender Stratocaster. George Harrison tried to buy a Fender Stratocaster in 1956, but because of a US embargo Stratocasters did not exist in England. A very dissapointed George Harrison who had been painting Fender Stratocasters for hours everyday in school as a 12-13 year old boy instead of listening to the teachers had to settle for a Stratocaster copy called Futurama. George continued to try to Find a Stratocaster the years 1957 to 1963 but They were impossible to find in England or Hamburg. Even a tripp to his sister who lived in US in 1963 was unsucessful because her city did not sell Fender guitars. Finally in approximadely September to December 1964 England imported 13 Fender Stratocasters and George bought one of them. At his death They accounted he owned 350 Fender Stratocasters. Stratocasters he had bought himself because The Beatles had a policy of not allowing sponsorship. He was Happy though to be interviewed for 7 days for the official Fender Stratocaster book for 7 days, a book he as a Beatle got the lion part of. George Harrison is considered the biggest fan of the Fender Stratocaster of all musicians.

Great job excellent work

The level of detail here is FRIGHTENING. And amazing. Great job!

Very cool. Thanks... where is that black strat?

Great video and great detective work.

Amazing video,thank you

Loved it.

Perfect!

Great!!

uplifting, joyous and sunshingly supreme.

Super.

Beautiful version.

Seriously superb.

Wonderful version.

Great video my friend !!! I love the details explored !!! More videos please !!!

Love that Guerssen Los Shakers "For You" vinyl in the background!

Superb! Thanks for letting us here what a completed version of this song might have sounded like.

We Can Work It Out live?

Very interesting facts! Great video Nick!

They play 30 minute concerts…not Bruce Springsteen 3 1/2 hour shows.

Wow! I tip my hat to a young fan who has provided such a flawlessly factual deep dive into a previously neglected subject. So many items I’ve never heard and photos I’ve never seen!

there's a mccartney bass in the horniman museum, forest hill. london se23. honest

I find John playing a red guitar from the Dakotas just a little disturbing, considering how that name is linked to him now and the night that broke many hearts around the world.

I did read that Jim burns the owner and designer of burns guitars personality refinished John Lennons Rick 325from natural to black

Their dates in Scotland are really bizarre. They played places like Dingwall and Kirkcaldy that have tiny populations. The audience couldn't have been more than a couple of hundred people.

Well done!

It makes sense for Paul to play the organ on Yesterday. He probably played the notes of the string quartet whereas George took over his guitar part.

So they played Nowhere Man and If I Needed Someone on Rickenbackers? Would be cool to hear a 325 play either of these songs

The Strat is actually a sparkle cherry red. no?

Love this.sounds simultaneously like Pet Sounds and Switched-On Bach!!!

great research, thanks!

Excellent video! The two things I find most interesting about it are Paul playing Yesterday (Live) on keyboards, and a black Stratocaster with matching black headstock. I thought the matching headstock thing was much more modern?

Wonderful content!! Greetings from the Netherlands!

Wonderful job on this - People often comment on the number of takes the Byrds did....but the song is an absolute masterpiece. One comment about the Bm to A guitar stabs - to my ears he is not playing a full Bm but leaving the B string open....I do not hear the D note that the full chord would give you - but I do hear the open B string. I could be wrong but that's what I hear.

Just subscribed .....so you can play as well !!!!!

LIKED ...SUBSCRIBED !!! Thank you Nick . Over here in Wales UK , I just found this channel and am a 61 year old Beatles "trainspotter" . I appreciate the time and effort that you have put into making this video . I look forward to checking out your other releases . My eldest son spent three years at LIPA and met Paul , and I spent some time with drummer , Alan White of Plastic Ono fame .

i read Somewhere Paul played The Drums On this tour for one of the support acts i dont know if this is a true story

John playing a strat looks so wrong lol

The Beatles were a PSYOP and virtually as fake as the Monkees! They played out ONCE in their last FOUR YEARS?!?

The fish and chips cut was never meant to be a video. The cameraman just had the cameras running. When Brian Epstein saw that this was happening he was furious and demanded that they turn the cameras off. This was never meant to be a proper video.

In 1972, when John did the One to One concert he kept his Telecaster guitar on his back while playing keyboards... ruclips.net/video/PyMhN3pKy34/видео.html
