Epiphone Texan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Epiphone Texan guitar was produced by the Epiphone Gibson company in Kalamazoo Michigan during the mid 1950's. The Texan was made popular by sir Paul McCartney in a live performance of Yesterday.

An acoustic guitar Paul McCartney acquired in 1965, on which he performed the song "Yesterday".

It's also famous for being the acoustic guitar on which McCartney performed the signature "McCartney Picking" in some album pieces such as "Blackbird", "Mother Nature's Son" (The Beatles "White Album"), "Calico Skies"( Flaming Pie), and more recently "Jenny Wren" (Chaos and Creation in the Backyard).
