This guitar has a special head, which holds the 12 string in such way that, when looking the instrument, one might think it only has 6 strings. It was a very important sound on the beatlemania sound, and is still often quoted as one of the Beatles trade marks. Whenever we hear a 12 string guitar, we know a beatlefan passed by. Roger McGuinn of The Byrds was heavily influenced by this instrument, and become a master on it himself.
On a more amateurish level, I should mention myself... It wasn't easy at all, because it's not a very common nor cheap instrument, but I managed to get me one, just like George's.
