    Coldplay Signed Oasis Guitar Up For Sale At Only £795

    A Guitar once owned by rocker Noel Gallagher and autographed by a host of pop stars is up for sale - for just £795.

     

    The Takamine electro-acoustic guitar bears the signatures of the Oasis songwriter, Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin and lots of other top artists like members of rock group Idlewild, Ms Dynamite and Lou Rhodes.

     

    All the artists signed the guitar after appearing alongside Manchester rock band Oasis at the Oxfam Make Trade Fair concert in October 2002. The guitar was auctioned on behalf of the charity Oxfam after the gig and was bought by internet-based music memorabilia specialist 991.com. Now the company is selling it.

    The instrument, which usually costs about £300, also comes complete with a letter confirming authenticity from Oxfam and a Certificate of Authenticity.

     

    A spokesman for 991.com said: "It was originally at a higher price but we wanted it to be more accessible to fans so brought the price down. We think the person who buys this is likely to use it as a display piece rather than play it so the price reflects that too."

     

    When Noel's former Oasis bandmate Paul `Bonehead' Arthurs put some of his guitars up for sale at legendary Manchester guitar store Johnny Roadhouse in 2005 one of them fetched almost £25,000.
