The Gibson J-160E are among the most popular Gibsons because they were played by the Beatles. John Lennon played such a Roundshoulder Gibson J-160E as this one.
A little curiosity on the side: The original John Lennon guitar was auctioned off for 2.4 million dollars and is therefore among the most expensive guitars in the world!
