Question
What type of guitatr is Paul playing?

Answer
Hi Joe,
Paul at the time owned two acoustic guitars:
- 1964 Epiphone Texan FT-79 acoustic (played on yesterday)
- C.F. Martin D-28 acoustic appeared in 1968.
One of these guitars (maybe the Martin supposed to be played on Blackbird) should be the one...
Anyway if you like the topic I suggest you:

Hope it helps,

I`m an italian Beatle fan who`s been studying, playing, reading The Beatles for more than twentyfive years. I can answer about recording sessions, lyrics, biography, instruments and more. I`ve been playng bass guitar and their music for years and know pretty much about their music and composition. I own a double complete discography (on vinil and on cd) and lots of books about them. I regret not to be so expert about their films and personal careers, but I think I can answer nearly any question about their life and music in the period 1940 - 1970.

Experience

Usually, no Trivia on The Beatles leaves me without words. Moreover I've been playing bass guitar and their music for nearly twenty years and I can discuss on this matter quite deeply. Please no questions about vintage Lps', collectors items' or memorabilia value.
