And we had, 'Oh you-u-u/ got that something.' And Paul hits this chord and I turn to him and say, 'That's it!' I said, 'Do that again!' In those days, we really used to absolutely write like that-both playing into each other's noses. We were in Jane Asher's house, downstairs in the cellar playing on the piano at the same time. Like in 'I Want to Hold Your Hand,' I remember when we got the chord that made the song. We wrote a lot of stuff together, one on one, eyeball to eyeball. For instance, Lennon's jamming on a piano together with Paul McCartney led to creation of ' I Want to Hold Your Hand' in 1963. His other instrument of choice was the piano, on which he also composed many songs. John Lennon played various guitars with the Beatles and during his solo career, most notably the Rickenbacker (four variants thereof) and Epiphone Casino, along with various Gibson and Fender guitars. John Lennon's musical instruments were both diverse and many, and his worldwide fame resulted in his personal choices having a strong impact on cultural preferences.
