Cobain’s Smashed Guitar Fetches $100 000

A smashed guitar owned and played by the late Kurt Cobaine fetches $100 000 in an auction, to a private bidder.

This particular guitar was smashed at an early gig in New Jersey.  Jacob McMurray, senior curator at the Experience Music Project in Seattle, states:  “It’s a really cool-looking guitar because it’s smashed and held together with duct tape and Kurt Cobain wrote on it”.

This is the second most expensive bid on a Cobain item, being topped by a bid of $131 000 on an infamous Mosrite Gospel Mark IV guitar, owned by Cobain.

Wow, talk about an expensive purchase.  Personally, I think this smashed guitar should have sold for more than the Mark IV.  Nonetheless, another expensive purchase of an item from a music legend.
