A guitar used by Kurt Cobain while recording his famous concert "Englibad" with the band of Nirvana in 1993, is offered for sale at an auction to be held on June 19 and 20 in Los Angeles, with an estimated price starting at one million dollars. The classic guitar is on sale by Julians Oceans, a rare American Martin model that dates back to 1959. Only 302 machines were made of it. The "Englibad" concert recorded in New York on November 18, 1993 was the culmination of the march of "Nirvana" rock band, the most distinguished in the nineties, especially in the field of Grange music.
The band performed the most famous of her songs, as well as David Bowie's song "The Man is Solid The World" remarkably. The ceremony came less than six months before the suicide of Kurt Cobain, who was suffering from depression on the fifth of April 1994. Cobain committed suicide before the release of "Engelbad", which took the lead in sales of cylinders with its launch in November 1994.
More than five million cylinders were sold in the United States alone, according to the Billboard Magazine. The guitar is offered for sale, along with its box containing the details of Kurt Cobain. It is noteworthy that the most expensive guitar in the world is a "Fender Strakocaster" used by David Gilmore, a player in the British Pink Floyd band.
This guitar, called "Black Jacket", was sold for $ 3.975 million during an auction organized by Christie's last June, and the proceeds went to charities. At the end of last October, a green jacket, which Kurt Cobain wore, was sold during "Engelbad" registration at a price of 334 thousand dollars, at an auction organized by the "Julians Oceans" house as well.
• June 19, the auction starts in Los Angeles and will last for two days.
