Slash will sell 14 of his prized guitars at auction
The former Guns N` Roses guitarist - who estimates he owns at least 100 of the musical instruments -will sell a Guild acoustic which he used to record the single `Patience` along with various other custom guitars.
Slash decided to hold the sale because a recent house move made him realise he has a "bad habit of collecting stuff that I don`t necessarily use".
Along with the guitars Slash will also sell two of his trademark top hats and a selection of jackets, T-shirts and jewellery.
A 1966 Corvette Stingray with an estimated selling price of $90,000 is set to be one of the non musical highlights of the sale with the rocker - who released his first solo album last year, and is also in the band Velvet Revolver - with him admitting he will be sorry to sell the "monster of a car" he bought at the beginning of his career.
He said: "I know that somebody will love to have that car because muscle cars are very, very popular."
The March 26 sale is being organised through Julien`s Auctions with a sizable share of the proceeds going to a local charity for abused and homeless teenagers.
