Kurt Cobain once called the 1969 left-handed Fender Mustang guitar his 'favorite.' The guitar and other items are going up for auction in May.
"Smells Like Teen Spirit" was Nirvana’s breakout single from its second album "Nevermind." The success of the song and music video on MTV catapulted the album to the top of several music charts and is often credited as the moment when grunge music entered the mainstream.
For the past 12 years, the guitar has been on display at Seattle’s Experience Music Project, now named the Museum of Pop Culture , the auction house said. After Cobain’s death, Courtney Love sold the vehicle to his sister, Kim Cobain, who has owned it for the past 28 years. Also up for auction will be Cobain’s hand-drawn 1985 Iron Maiden "Killers" skateboard deck artwork featuring the Iron Maiden mascot "Eddie" plus NFT — estimated to sell for $20,000 to $40,000. The auction house said Cobain was creating artwork on skateboard decks and T-shirts as a way of earning money at the time it was created.
