Introduced in 1954, the "J-160E" is a round-shoulder model that inherited the fundamental concept of the "CF-100"—the world's first flat-top guitar equipped with a pickup to ensure sufficient volume within an ensemble. It is famously known as the guitar that John Lennon and George Harrison both acquired and used, becoming an iconic piece of Beatles gear. This specific instrument is a 2008 "J-160E John Lennon Peace Model," released as a limited edition of 750 units worldwide. It recreates the guitar owned by Lennon during the period after the psychedelic paint job from 1967 had been stripped away, revealing a natural finish. Features include a laminated spruce top, mahogany back and sides, a mahogany neck, a rosewood fingerboard and bridge, crown headstock inlay, pearloid trapezoid (dish) position markers, and an adjustable saddle. Most importantly, it is equipped with the "P-90" pickup, a defining element of this model. The laminated top and ladder bracing were employed to suppress excessive resonance—which could interfere with the pickup's output—resulting in a unique, thick tone with compressed attack; when amplified, it delivers that distinctive, crisp sound synonymous with the original. While there are some very fine scratches and scuffs, as well as a small dent (approximately 5mm) on the lower bout of the top near the controls, the instrument remains in beautiful condition considering its age. The frets show no significant wear, the neck is in excellent shape, and the action is comfortable for playing. It is a fantastic choice for both stage performance and as a collector's item.
