Essential Artifact from 'Back to the Future' Goes Missing; Documentary Explores Its Whereabouts
In a whimsical quest that's sparking curiosity among fans of the iconic film, Back to the Future, the elusive red Gibson ES-345 guitar, famously wielded by Marty McFly, has mysteriously disappeared.
Initially, the electric rig was borrowed from Norman’s Rare Guitars in Los Angeles for filming, but it mysteriously vanished during the production of Back to the Future Part II in the mid-80s.[2] Now, Gibson, who's spearheading the search for the iconic instrument, is also working on a documentary, aptly titled Lost to the Future: The Search for Marty McFly's Back to the Future Guitar.[2][4]
You could potentially be a part of this captivating narrative! Suppose you happened to snag a cherry red Gibson ES-345 between 1985 and somewhere in the mists of time.[2] In that case, Gibson has set up a dedicated hotline (1-855-345-1955) and a website for you to share your tips, ensuring you'll secure a spot in the upcoming documentary.[1][3]
Check out the endearing "call to action" video below, which features a Rusty reunion of some beloved Back to the Future cast members. Michael J. Fox, Lea Thompson, Christopher Lloyd, Harry Waters Jr. (as "Marvin Berry"), and even Bob Gale, co-writer of the film, make an appearance, alongside Huey "The Power of Love" Lewis.[1]
While the cast may be off the hook, one wonders if any curious eyes have sifted through Robert Zemeckis' garage lately?
