John Lennon J-160E Peace
John Lennon couldnt quite afford his first Gibson J-160E in 1962, pressing Beatles manager Brian Epstein to co-sign for the guitars purchase. Epstein obliged, and ended up purchasing not just Lennons, but one for George Harrison as well. Both guitars ended up making rock and roll history with the Beatles, appearing on countless studio recordings, movies, and live performances. The Gibson John Lennon J-160E Peace guitarproduced in cooperation with Yoko Onois a painstaking recreation of Lennons beloved instrument as it was in 1969, after he stripped away the psychedelic paint job he commissioned in 1967, and before he doodled caricatures of himself and Ono on the guitars body during their infamous 1969 Bed-In protests against the Vietnam War. Todays John Lennon J-160E Peace model features the same round shoulder body design, with a Sitka spruce plywood top and mahogany back and sides, producing a full-sounding, balanced tone with warm, rich lows and crisp, presence-laden highs.
Nickel Gotoh Pearloid Keystone Button Tuners
Gibsons John Lennon J-160E Peace features Gotohs pearloid keystone button tuners. With a gear ratio of 15:1, these nickel Gotoh tuners deliver precision tuning in a durable housing that provides maximum protection for the gear and string post. All moving parts are cut for exact meshing, eliminating the possibility of slippage, with a special lubricant inside the gear box for smooth and accurate tuning stability.
Crown Peghead Logo
Gibson put the first crown peghead logo on an ES-300 back in 1940, and it has graced the headstocks of many legendary Gibson guitars ever since, including todays John Lennon J-160E Peace . Over the years, it has also been called a thistle because of the group of flowering plants with the sharp prickles, though Gibson has preferred to call it a crown.
Pickguard
The dark tortoise pickguard for the John Lennon J-160E Peace is the same vintage shape and color as the pickguard on Gibsons original J-160E. As with all of Gibsons pickguards, the coloring, inlay, and binding are all done by hand.
Rosette
A rosette is the beautiful, hand-crafted circle around the soundhole, and can be one of the most ornamental elements of any acoustic guitar. It is also one of the most subtle and complicated woodworking decorations on any acoustic guitar. The rosette on the John Lennon J-160E Peace is a simple single-ring rosette consisting of three-ply binding, adding a stylish, understated elegance to the John Lennon J-160E.
Gibson P-90 Pickup
The Gibson P-90 pickup is truly legendary. First introduced in the mid 1940s, Gibsons first successful singlecoil pickup is still a favorite among players from all musical styles and genres. On the Gibson John Lennon J-160E Peace Signature Artist Series, the P-90 is mounted strategically between the base of the neck and the edge of the soundhole and controlled by one volume and one tone knob located at the edge of the lower right bout, just below the bridge. It delivers the same soulful, classic tone as it did when the J-160E was first introduced in the mid-1950s. As with all Gibson pickups, every part is precisely manufactured at Gibson USA in Nashville, Tennessee, insuring tight, seamless fittings, and superior workmanship.
Rosewood Fingerboard with Rolled Edges and Trapezoid Inlays
The fingerboard of Gibsons John Lennon J-160E Peace is constructed from the highest grade rosewood on earth, which is personally inspected and qualified by Gibsons team of skilled experts before it enters the Gibson factories. The resilience of this durable wood makes the fingerboard extremely balanced and stable, and gives each chord and note unparalleled clarity and bite. The J-160Es trapezoid inlays are made of genuine mother of pearl, and are inserted into the fingerboard using a process that eliminates gaps and doesnt require the use of fillers. The fingerboard also sports a rolled edgeinstead of the usual right angle where the fingerboard surface meets the neck, Gibson Acoustics rolled edges are slightly beveled for an extremely smooth and comfortable feel, enhancing the playability of the John Lennon J-160E Peace.
Body Tonewoods (back, sides and top)
The body of the John Lennon J-160E Peace is based on the body design of the J-45 slope shoulder dreadnought. The top is made from AA-grade Sitka spruce, while the back and sides are constructed from mahogany, producing a full-sounding, balanced tone with warm, rich lows and crisp, presence-laden highs. Selecting the right wood, and the formula to dry it out, are two of the most central procedures to Gibsons guitar-building process. Beginning with its first catalog in 1903, Gibson has assured its customers that every guitar would be built using woods with the most durable, elastic, and sonorous qualities, and todays guitars from Gibson Acoustic are no different.
Bracing
Every acoustic guitar made by Gibson features hand-scalloped, radiused top bracing inside the body, a feature normally found only in limited run, hand-made guitars. By scalloping each brace by hand, the natural sound of the acoustic is focused more toward the center of the body, enhancing the instruments sound projection. The braces inside the John Lennon J-160E Peace acoustic are designed to the same specs as the Ladder bracing pattern found in the original J160Es of the early 1960s, and which dates all the way back to the early 1900s. In this pattern, the top braces run parallel to themselves, from treble to bass sidelike the the rungs of a ladderdelivering the infamous Beatle-esque sound heard on many of the Beatles recordings of the early to mid 1960s.

Protégez votre investissement avec la Garantie de fiabilité Long & McQuade.
Une bonne garantie est souvent un facteur décisif au moment d’un achat. Étant donné qu’une réparation peut être très dispendieuse, les manufacturiers n’offrent en général qu’une protection limitée d’un an couvrant seulement les défauts de fabrication. Lors d’une acquisition aussi importante que celle d’un instrument de musique ou d’une pièce d’équipement, vous voudrez avoir l’assurance que votre achat sera protégé de façon adéquate.
C’est pourquoi Long & McQuade offre une année GRATUITE de sa Garantie de fiabilité sur la plupart de ses produits. Cette couverture, qui bonifie celle du fabricant, vous procurera la tranquillité d’esprit que vous recherchez.
En quoi la garantie Long & McQuade se distingue-t-elle de celles des autres fabricants?
- Fiabilité assurée : l’usure normale de certaines pièces est couverte. Le produit fonctionnera aussi bien qu’au premier jour pour toute la durée de la protection. Pour les instruments d’orchestre, nos techniciens et techniciennes évalueront la nécessité d’effectuer un nettoyage en profondeur, un remplacement de tampons ou un nettoyage à ultrasons. Ces services ne sont pas offerts systématiquement dans le cadre de la Garantie de fiabilité.
- Possibilité de remplacement : si votre produit est irréparable ou coûte trop cher à remettre en état, nous l’échangerons contre un modèle identique ou équivalent, sans frais supplémentaires. Si ce n’est pas possible, nous vous accorderons un remboursement complet.
- Politique anticitron : si votre article présente un problème récurrent, nous le remplacerons.
- Accessibilité : vous pouvez vous prévaloir de votre garantie dans n’importe quelle succursale Long & McQuade.
- Réglage de guitare : une mise au point gratuite est incluse à l’achat de toute guitare neuve ou d’occasion.
- Prêt de matériel : un produit de rechange peut être mis à votre disposition pendant la réparation de votre article.
- Survoltage couvert : l’appareil est garanti même s’il est endommagé par une surtension.
- Assurance-accessoires : tous les accessoires fournis avec le produit (pédale, étui, etc.) sont couverts.
- Usage commercial approuvé : l’équipement acheté pour une utilisation intensive bénéficie aussi de cette protection.
Long & McQuade se réserve le droit de limiter l’achat d’années additionnelles. Les produits d’occasion sont protégés par la Garantie de fiabilité pour une durée de trois mois. Certains articles (logiciels, cymbales, etc.) sont couverts uniquement par la garantie du fabricant. Les biens non durables (cordes, anches, baguettes, piles, tubes, etc.) sont exclus, tout comme les dommages accidentels, la détérioration esthétique et les problèmes causés par l’humidité ou la température. Les haut-parleurs endommagés par un usage excessif ne sont généralement pas couverts. Notre garantie ne compense pas la perte de jouissance. A partir de juin 2018, la garantie de performance n'est plus transférable. Valide seulement au Canada.
Achat d’années additionnelles de garantie
Certains fabricants offrent une garantie de plus d’un an, mais qui est en général limitée et moins avantageuse que la nôtre. Lorsque c’est le cas, la prolongation de notre protection vous sera tout de même profitable, du fait qu’elle est plus complète et pratique.
Vous pouvez acheter des années supplémentaires de notre protection si vous souhaitez en profiter plus longtemps. Les tarifs sont les suivants :
- Produits NEUFS : à partir de 4 % du prix actuel de l’article à l’état neuf par année supplémentaire.
- Produits D’OCCASION : à partir de 4 % du prix actuel de l’article à l’état neuf pour passer initialement de trois mois à un an. À partir de 4 % pour chaque année de plus.
- Guitares : 4 % du prix actuel de l’article à l’état neuf pour passer d’un an à deux. 4 % pour chaque année de plus. Tarif maximum de 45 $. Une mise au point gratuite supplémentaire n’est pas incluse avec l’achat d’années de couverture additionnelles.
- Instruments d’orchestre : 4 % du prix actuel de l’article à l’état neuf pour passer d’un an à deux. 4 % pour chaque année de plus.
