    Hi. Very cool guitar. Can you re-do this video with sound demos?

    John also played this guitar during every song on Dutch TV in 1964, including “All My Loving”, which he actually played all barre chords which was very rare.

    Had this same issue with Andy Babiuk. John played the 325-rhythm part that was mixed low. The chiming "tagline" is played by George on his Gretsch Tennessean (both coils) through a Vox "top-boost" amp that was doubled on the vocal track. You can tell it's NOT a 12 string because as he hits the G and D strings in the tagline there are NO octave strings, IT'S NOT A 12 STRING 12! I duplicated it perfectly on my Gretsch Tennessean back in the 60's when we did covers, and it still works today.

    Officially it's a 320/12.
    The story goes that DB151 was shipped to the UK along with Gerry Marsden's 360/12 that subsequently belonged to Alistair Parker of Bailter Space.

    It's a 320/12 .....John didn't use it on stage much. He owned 4 Ricanbackers....the original black refinished 325 bought in Hamburg in 1960, the replacement Jetglo from the second Ed Sullivan show. The above mentioned Jetglo 12-string and a Rose Morris supplied sunburst 6-string.

    Great guitars though they are; I previously owned a Rickenbacker 330 Fireglow, I wonder if Rickenbacker would still be around today if they didn't have The Beatles connection? Come to that, Gretsch too, with their connection to The Beatles through George Harrison? Nice review of a very nice guitar, and, if it was good enough for John Lennon then...

    ua-cam.com/video/TkQFi9H7l0E/v-deo.html lead guitar is this guitar. Hope that kinda helps with sound. He might have a little flanger on I think. Other than that, clean pickup sounds

    John's 325/12 can be heard on Every Little Things, no doubt about it. But Words Of Love? The most chiming guitar in that song is George's lead on Gretsch, double tracked. The rhythm guitar sounds like a 6 string.

      Thanks for watching. It’s a great guitar to dissect and figure out how it was utilized.
      It is known that the 325/12 was in the studio when the Beatles were recording ‘Words of Love’. It is surmised in the ‘Beatles Gear’ book that the 325/12 was used as there were two 12 string guitars heard on ‘Words of Love’. Also, the 325/12 would have been a relatively new instrument for Lennon to be experimenting with at the time.
      It’s a close listen but there seems to be a variation between the two guitars. This leads me to believe that the 325/12 is one of the two 12 string guitars heard on that track.

      @@britbeattv3126 Sorry but there seems to be no 12-string guitar on the record at all. The lead guitar is a 6-string double tracked, there's no higher octave string doubling which is what a 12-string guitar would give. And I doubt the rhythm a 12-string as well, it just sound like a 6 string.

      In Words Of Love, the first guitar is played by George with the Grestch Tennessean folded, one track can be heard in the center and the other in the right. John plays rhythm guitar with Rick 325c64

    The third syllable of Rickenbacker should be pronounced as "back", not "bok".
