This acoustic guitar was gifted to Jeff Beck by Yamaha. According to guitar technician Steve Prior, Jeff played the acoustic during tour rehearsals circa 2001. The guitar can be seen in Jeff’s home studio in the short film ‘At Home with Jeff Beck and his guitars’, produced by Viv Johns and Lykke Strunk and included as a bonus feature on the 2011 live concert DVD Rock 'n' Roll Party - Honouring Les Paul.
