Jimi Hendrix Burnt Guitar May Fetch £500000 At Auction guitar

Jimi Hendrix’s 1965 Fender Stratocaster that was set ablaze at London’s Finsbury Astoria in 1967 during a concert is now all set to go under hammer on 4 September with additional momentous objet d’art from accessories across the world. The guitar burnt by Jimi Hendrix is likely to turn into the most expensive guitar ever sold at auction. This is the very instrument that Hendrix set fire to at the London Astoria in 1967 and is anticipated to fetch around £500,000. Jimi is known for setting fire to guitars almost three times in London.
