ADD -- blessing and curse
What kind of guitar was Kurt Cobain playing on "Unplugged"?

What were the guitars that Krist and Pat were playing?
 
I could be wrong but I think he was playing a Martin D-28E. They made around '58-9. Ugly suckers they were.
 
Hi,
For the show, Kurt Cobain played a Martin D-18E.
The D-18E, one of Martin's earliest stabs at an electrified guitar, is essentially a D-18 acoustic with two pickups, three control knobs and a selector switch grafted on.
It was introduced in 1958, it was discontinued in 1959; only 302 were ever produced.

Pat played a 1960's Harmony "Buck Owens" Model.


Take care,
Tony
