Guns n’ Roses borrowed Dave Grohl‘s rock throne after Axl Rose broke his foot when the reunited group was about to tour in 2016. And Grohl says he got a great guitar as a thank-you.

Grohl had the throne built-in 2015 so he could still do Foo Fighters shows after breaking his leg in Sweden, and he tells Classic Rock, “So Axl took it out with Guns n’ Roses, then he took it out with AC/DC, and then all of a sudden I became the guy you come to if you break a limb on tour, like Thrones R Us.”

After the throne was returned, Axl wanted to give Grohl a very special thank-you gift. “He had Slash go pick me a guitar. And he picked me an early-’60s Gibson ES 335 Dot, which to this day is the nicest guitar I have ever played in my life. It was an incredibly kind and classy gesture, and I was very appreciative.”
