    Normal people throw picks off stage, and Kurt was throwing pedals…

    "I have the Strat Hendrix used at Woodstock." "Best I can do is a coupon for a free hamburger."
  • I wouldn't sell this at all. My god it's history and being a huge fan of Kurt's it would mean the world to me.
  • @EdwinDPZ
    He should just keep it, it'll be worth a lot more after Kurt dies or the band breaks up.

    “This is the amp that John Lennon played on the rooftop of abbey road studios” The best I can do is 50 bucks

    "You a big Nirvana fan?" "Uh, yeah... All I can remember listening to as a kid was uh... Smells like Teen Spirit... " Yeah. Big fan.
  • @Zer0Mem0ry
    "Kurt Cobain played it" "Who? Kirk Cabin? Best I can do is $5."
  • Kurt almost never used a DOD grunge it was just on his pedalboard essentially as a joke
  • Corey: "Best I can do is $500." Seller: "Smells Like Highway Robbery."
  • @mainsmain
    "You a big nirvana fan?" "yeah smells like teen spirit" he's not a nirvana fan he's a trend guy
  • @jamesearls1973
    And his guitar just sold for 6 million dollars i would have bought that no question. A great investment
  • @nickknight8632
    You could tell that Cory actually cared about Kurt Cobain when after they couldn't make deal he said "you didn't lose today man"
  • @cpiper43085
    maybe not 15 grand but definitely at least 5 if kurt really used it. I personally wouldn't sell it, priceless to me
  • @dylancool8394
    "27-year old guitar pedal that Kurt Cobain used in concert in 1993? Let me call up a buddy of mine who's an expert on 27-year old guitar pedals that Kurt Cobain's used in concert in 1993."
  • bro imagine saying your a big nirvana fan then selling a pedal that KURT HISELF played. like any true nirvana fan would literally hold on to that for the rest of their lives
  • @RicketyKrickett
    Corey: you a big fan? Guy: yeah I love the way this pedal sounded during their mtv unplugged show
