Michael J. Fox in rare reunion with Back to the Future cast
Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, and Lea Thompson appear in a new video by Gibson appealing to the public to help find the Cherry Red Gibson ES-345 guitar used in Back to the Future.
The guitar has been missing since the production of the 1989 sequel, and Gibson is producing a documentary, Lost to the Future, to chronicle the search as the movie commemorates its 40th anniversary.
The video includes a surprise appearance by Huey Lewis, whose band performed the soundtrack's headliner song, 'The Power of Love'.
In the film, Marty McFly (played by Michael J. Fox) plays the guitar at a 1955 school dance, performing "Johnny B. Goode" and showcasing riffs inspired by guitarists like Jimi Hendrix, Pete Townshend, and Eddie Van Halen.
Fox jokes the missing guitar could be lost in the space-time continuum.
