Hmmm...the world's most expensive rhythm guitar?

Until and unless Bruce ever sells off the red one he has used for a while...

A nice old Strat though- I still love the plain old bog standard sunburst Strat- whether maple or rosewood fingerboard ....

Dylan's 'outrage' at Newport occurred in 1965, by coincidence the year that Leo Fender sold out to CBS, the key connection of Dylan's record label!

Re the person who "found" Dylan's Strat that he left on an aircraft ......Surely that's stealing isn't it?

Quotes from the news report - interpret them as you will...

Dawn Peterson said on the PBS programme History Detectives that her father, the private plane's pilot, asked Dylan's management firm what to do with the guitar but nobody ever got back to him.

Recently, Dylan and Ms Peterson quietly settled a legal dispute over the instrument. Details of the settlement are not known.
