The Gibson J-160E is a pioneering acoustic-electric guitar introduced in 1954, notable for its integration of a single pickup into a dreadnought body. This model gained iconic status through its association with The Beatles; John Lennon and George Harrison each purchased one in 1962, using them extensively in early recordings such as “Love Me Do,” “Please Please Me,” and “I Want to Hold Your Hand” . Lennon's guitar was lost in 1963 and remained missing for over 50 years before being rediscovered in 2015 and auctioned for $2.4 million . Over the years, Gibson has released several editions celebrating the instrument's enduring legacy in rock history .
