Search for the Missing 'Back to the Future' Guitar Gains Momentum
As the 40th anniversary of the iconic film's release approaches, the search for the legendary Gibson ES-345 guitar, famously wielded by Marty McFly in the 'Back to the Future' series, is gaining momentum.
The guitar, which was used in the 'Enchantment Under the Sea' dance scene instead of a Stratocaster, has been the subject of much speculation since it mysteriously disappeared after filming. Now, investigative journalists Scott and Naomi Jones, who played a crucial role in finding Paul McCartney's one-of-a-kind Hofner violin bass, have been enlisted to help in the search.
According to Gibson's Mark Agnesi, the guitar was borrowed from Norman's Rare Guitars for the film. The search for the guitar is being documented for a future film, adding an exciting layer to the mystery.
The guitar's significance lies not only in its role in the film but also in the fact that it was used by Michael J. Fox's character to play Johnny B. Goode. The guitar's time-traveling abilities, due to a faux pas by the props team, have added to its allure.
John Mayer and Coldplay's Chris Martin have been inspired by the guitar, further emphasizing its cultural impact. Fans who think they might have the missing guitar are encouraged to send a picture of it to [email protected].
Scott and Naomi Jones, known for their meticulous research and investigative skills, are optimistic about the search. Agnesi, however, is not expecting the guitar's owner to return it. Nevertheless, the goal remains to reunite the guitar with Michael J. Fox.
