Julien’s Auctions will present the electric guitar that changed the landscape of music. The guitar is one of the most important and iconic guitars owned and played by Kurt Cobain that will ever be sold at auction. The conservative starting estimate of Cobain’s 1969 Fender Mustang left-handed guitar in Competition Lake Placid blue finish with matching headstock is $600,000 to $800,000.

Kurt Cobain replied to allegations against Michael Jackson in a 1993 MTV interview: “We no have right to even… I think it’s ridiculous, it’s a waste of time.”

“So, are the authorities calling Michael back to the States? Is he actually breaking the law right now?”

“Like he isn’t [a fugitive]. So what’s the big deal? He has all the right to be away until then.”

He said about Jackson’s public image, “It wouldn’t matter if he got on Oprah again and cried in front of everybody. It’s not going to change anybody’s opinion about it.”

“I just feel really sorry for him.”
