A broken electric guitar signed by Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain fetched $595,000 at auction in New York.
The guitar was thus sold for an amount that corresponds to nearly 10 times its estimated value at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York, Le Figaro reported on Wednesday.
+ The guitar valued between 60,000 and 80,000 dollars +
The instrument was the headliner of a three-day auction dedicated to rock history. The guitar was originally valued between $60,000 and $80,000.
It should be noted that Nirvana’s popularity skyrocketed with the group’s second album titled “Nevermind”.
Released in September 1991, the album had sold over a million copies in the United States by the end of that year. In 1992, he reached number one on the Billboard 200. In 1994, Cobain committed suicide at the height of his fame, aged just 27, the newspaper adds.
