George Harrison’s “Lucy” Gibson Les Paul has an Accident and Gently Weeps. The Beatles Get Back trailer rooftop review documentary reaction movie clip live peter jackson scene Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds lyrics John Lennon Paul McCartney George Harrison Ringo Starr. That was for the algorithm.

This clip is from the moment when "Lucy", George Harrison's prized Gibson Les Paul nearly "died" while recording the Let it Be album in 1969.

At the invitation of George Harrison, Eric Clapton played the cherry red Les Paul on the 1968 Beatles song “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.” The guitar also can be seen in the Beatles' Let It Be movie and in the 1968 promo film for "Revolution". Eric Clapton played the guitar at his comeback Rainbow Concert in 1973.

The guitar was originally a 1957 Gibson Les Paul Gold Top, refinished by Gibson in 1967 in “cherry red”. It has a lightweight mahogany body, unusually slim '50s neck (thanks to the refinishing in 1967) and PAF humbuckers. The offset seam on the maple top along with screw holes for the previously removed Bigsby vibrato and “Custom” truss rod cover are among the details.
