I may not have been clear: time period for this post includes the time after the Beatles split and went on to other projects.

Ah... No updates yet, but while digging around I did find this tidbit re: Harrison:

Quote:
For all the worship bestowed on the Harrison guitars, Mr. Campbell said his own encounters with the quiet Beatle suggested he was not especially precious about them.

“I was talking to him about how much I loved the guitar sounds on their early records, the Gretsches and the Rickenbackers,” Mr. Campbell recalled. “And he went: ‘Oh, yeah. They were kind of clunky and hard to play. If we had Fenders, we could have been really good.’ ”
