The custom-built Vox instrument, used by the late rockers at the height of the Fab Four's heyday, will be the main attraction at Julien's Auctions forthcoming Music Icons sale, reported Daily Star.
The guitar, handed to electronics engineer Yanni 'Magic Alex' Mardas as a gift in 1967, was strummed by Harrison as he rehearsed the 1967 song 'I Am The Walrus', while Lennon played it during a video session for 'Hello, Goodbye'.
The sale, scheduled for May 18, will also include an autographed copy of the band's 1963 debut album Please Please Me, which is expected to pull in up to 31,250 pounds, as well as costumes and memorabilia from Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley and David Bowie.
