John Lennonās āHelp!ā Guitar , Auctioned for Nearly $2.9 Million.
Lennon's Framus 12-string
Hootenanny acoustic guitar has been
sold by Julien's Auctions for $2,857,500.
According to 'Rolling Stone,'
that is "a new record for the
highest-selling guitar at auction
in the Beatlesā history.".
Lennon's Gibson J160E, which was sold for
$2.4 million in 2015, previously held the record.
We are absolutely thrilled and
honored to have set a new world
record with the sale of John
Lennonās lost Hootenanny guitar, David Goodman, chief executive at Julienās Auctions, via statement.
This guitar is not only a piece of
music history but a symbol of
John Lennonās enduring legacy. , David Goodman, chief executive at Julienās Auctions, via statement.
Todayās unprecedented sale is
a testament to the timeless
appeal and reverence of the
Beatlesā music and John Lennon, David Goodman, chief executive at Julienās Auctions, via statement.
The Hootenanny acoustic guitar was played by both Lennon and George Harrison while making 'Help!' and 'Rubber Soul.'.
It later fell into the hands of Scottish singer-songwriter Gordon Waller who
gifted it to one of his road managers.
50 years later, the guitar was found in
an attic in Britain, and the original guitar
case was rescued from the trash.
Darren Julien, co-founder of Julienās Auctions, referred
to the discovery as "the greatest find of a Beatles guitar
since Paul McCartneyās lost 1961 Hƶfner bass guitar." .
Finding this remarkable instrument
is like finding a lost Rembrandt or
Picasso, and it still looks and plays like
a dream after having been preserved
in an attic for more than 50 years. , Darren Julien, co-founder of Julienās Auctions, via statement.
To awaken this sleeping
beauty is a sacred honor, Darren Julien, co-founder of Julienās Auctions, via statement

This Day in History: , Paul McCartney Announces
the Breakup of the Beatles.
April 10, 1970.
McCartney announced the breakup
in a press statement prior to the release
of his debut solo album, 'McCartney.'.
When asked if his songwriting partnership
with John Lennon would be active again,
McCartney replied with a terse, "No.".
The Beatles had been in the process
of breaking up for several years.
But the statement sent shockwaves
through the music industry, further alienating
McCartney from the rest of the band.
In an interview with 'Rolling Stone,'
Lennon responded, saying, "[Paul] canāt
have his own way, so heās causing chaos.".
By the end of 1970, McCartney officially
filed suit to dissolve the
business partnership of The Beatles
