Question I was wondering what kind of guitar Bob Marley played. I have a poster of him playing an acoustic guitar, and was curious as to which brand or model that he used. thanks.
Answer John,
I know that Bob did some composing on a Hohner six string acoustic, but I don't know if that would be the one in your picture. Bob usually played a Fender Stratocaster or Gibson Les Paul on stage. I don't know what acoustic guitar he used for recording.
