George Harrison (25 February 1943 – 29 November 2001) was
an English musician, singer and songwriter who achieved
international fame as the lead guitarist of the Beatles.

In November 2001, Harrison began radiotherapy at Staten
Island University Hospital in New York City for non–small
cell lung cancer that had spread to his brain. He died in
Beverly Hills, California with his second wife Olivia and
their son Dhani by his side. He was 58 years old.          

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials in Los Angeles
seized more than $18 million in fake Gibson guitars in the
largest counterfeit musical instrument seizure in history.  

Working with local and federal agencies at the LA/Long
Beach Seaport, agents intercepted the suspected cargo
arriving in ocean containers from Asia. 

In total, agents seized more than 3,000 counterfeit guitars
and had they been genuine, the value would have been
more than $18.74 million.
