George was one of the first guitarists I looked up to as a kid and he’s still one of my biggest guitar heroes, can’t believe it’s been nearly 20 years since he passed away
George just seemed so genuine and down to earth and was a fantastic guitar player loved by many.
My first electric guitars were a Rickenbacker 325 and a Gretsch Tennessean because both of my idols were in the group that I idolized. George was such a under appreciated guitarist. He was never a crass, outlandish showman. Less was more.
Stop this video for a few minutes at
As a child back in the 60s I believe it was that twangy electric guitar sound when the Beatles first became famous here in America that attracted me to the guitar. "I wanna hold your hand" and "She loves you" sounded so exciting you couldn't help but be drawn in to that electric guitar sound. That groovy metallic shimmer changed everything.
I recall seeing George "in the zone" on a video or two--that place we guitarists go when our guitars are doing all the thinking and all the talking.
I'm a DRUMMER and I absolutely relished this detailed chronology of George's guitars. But hey, I'm also a huge, lifelong Beatles fan!

Great history review of my favourite Beatle and the tools of his trade.
George Harrison has got to be one of the most underrated guitarists of all time. From that incredible Rock-a-Billy twang he got with the early Beatles to the more sophisticated sound he got off of Rubber Soul, Sergeant Pepper and of course Abbey Road, with that beautiful tone and those awesome chops. His solo work such as; All Things Must Pass and Dark Horse, along with a host of others was also outstanding, and the great work he did with the Traveling Wilburys. Granted, they were an all star line up, which he played a huge role.

Well done... comprehensive, highly informative, and without any distracting nonsense.
That thumbnail photo is a poster photo of the perfect image. of a rock and roll musician and the perfect guitar an AWESOME sight. George Harrison his favorite guitar was Gretsch guitars. no matter what other guitars he played. he always gravitated back to Gretsch guitars.
George was quite generous about giving away his old guitars...whether for charity or to friends and fellow musicians.
Squier Strat owners must be celebrating George playing one in concert!
I didn’t realize George had so many guitars through the years of the Beatles. I thought the Rickenbacker was his primary guitar.
I find history like this very interesting and a listen to the Beatles channel on Sirius all the time, driving around signing full volume with my finger stuck in my ear to get the harmonies right ever since the Beatles. Never forget them when Denver allowed them, the first rock and roll Band to play Red Rocks they switched from 30 watt amps to 100 watts on guitars just to handle the screaming girls. Quite the experience topped off with a tab of Orange SunShine Wow.
Wow, I thorougly enjoyed this video, it's fascinating seeing George playing the different guitars through videos and performances and knowing where they actually came from.
You deserve a UA-cam best video award for the John and George Guitar videos 🏆!
He was such a pure soul. The story of him giving the strat/champ combo to his friend, and him reciprocating by using it in his show is just a great story.
