The 1969 Fender Mustang that Kurt Cobain used in the “Smells Like Teen Spirit” video will be up for auction through Julien’s Auctions on May 20th. A portion of the proceeds will go to Kicking The Stigma, a mental health charity, to go along with Mental Health Awareness Month. They are starting the bids between $600-800k, but they admit that’s pretty low given the guitar’s place in music history. They’ll also be selling his Dodge Dart he nicknamed “Baby Blue.” Here he is playing the iconic, left-handed Fender.
