Geoge Harrison's guitars iPad app

Beatles fans and guitar geeks, beware: this month will be released an iPad app that will blow your minds. The name is "Guitar Collection: George Harrison", and it promises to take users on a virtual closeup tour of many of the instruments played by one of the most celebrated musicians in history: George Harrison.

The app was developed by Harrison’s son, Dhani - who also plays in a couple bands of his own, thenewno2 and the L.A. supergroup Fistful of Mercy, with Joseph Arthur and Ben Harper.

"Guitar Collection: George Harrison" will cost $9.99 and will be available on iTunes starting February, 23, two days before what would have been Harrison’s 69th birthday.
It will give users the chance to closely examine the instruments through detailed photos and to explore each one’s history with documentation that shows when and where they were made, how Harrison acquired each one, and on which Beatles and solo Harrison songs they can be heard.
Photos by Steven Sebring offer a 360-degree view of each instrument, and each angle can be enlarged for the minutiae-minded to explore every scratch, dent and modification Harrison made to his musical arsenal.
