That's hard to say. He bought his first one at a London store called India Craft; he got a better one coming back from the Far East in 1965, when they had a layover in India. Ravi Shankar gave him lessons, but let him gradually know that he'd probably never achieve his ambitions with it; he'd started way too late.
Harrison largely abandoned Indian music after the Wonderwall soundtrack... but the time he'd put in on scales and exercises gave him a different musical sensibility, and when he started playing slide guitar (after The Beatles broke up), it all paid off.
