I used to work with a woman whose dad made the 2nd acoustic guitar on the right in this photo. She was supposed to deliver it to George while he was in NYC in the 70's. She told me she used to deliver guitars all the time for her dad, and this particular day she "didn't feel like it". She didn't know it was going to George. To her it was just another delivery. Needless to say, she is still kicking herself. The guitar is a Harptone. They were made in New Jersey. David Bowie also used one in the 70's. they have a fairly unusual headstock, with a scooped out top.
