Famous guitar bought for millions - 24th June 2020 View All
A guitar sold for over 6 million dollars last weekend. It had been owned by Kurt Cobain from the band Nirvana. He'd played the guitar in a concert for MTV in 1993.
Martin Nolan manages the company that sold the guitar.
Martin Nolan: "He sadly passed away in 1994 but in November 1993, Kurt Cobain was invited to participate in the MTV Unplugged and he did that in November 1993 in New York City. An incredible performance, all in one take, 14 songs."
Australian businessman Peter Freedman, who started a microphone company, bought the guitar. He knows musicians experience lots of problems. He wants to travel the world with the guitar. He plans to use the guitar to tell people about these problems.
The sale price of 6 million dollars has set a new world record for the most spent on a guitar.
Martin Nolan from Julien's Auctions: "Kurt Cobain certainly left a huge memory for everyone and then, because his career was so short and because he died so tragically at age 27, you know, people gravitate towards that and they want to hear his music, they want to see the videos, they want more."
