A custom electric guitar played by both John Lennon and George Harrison of the Beatles sold for $408,000 at a New York auction.
The semi-hollow custom Vox guitar features two symmetrical flared shoulders on the upper body.
It was made in 1966 and used by Harrison to play "I Am The Walrus" for a scene from Magical Mystery Tour in 1967.
Lennon also played the guitar in a video for "Hello, Goodbye" later that year.
