The acoustic guitar that David Gilmour played on Pink Floyd‘s seminal ‘Wish You Were Here’ has sold at auction for a record-breaking amount.

Today, Christies auctioned off his C.F. Martin & Company Nazareth 1969 D-35 acoustic guitar for $1,095,000 (£862k) – breaking the record previously held by Eric Clapton’s 1939 OO0-42, which sold for $791,500 (£623k) in 2004.


Can't wait to play it (hehehe)
