Keith Urban
A charity auction featuring
Keith Urban's vintage Airline electric guitar
will conclude Wednesday (Nov. 24). Proceeds will benefit flood relief efforts in Nashville, as well as fire and rescue departments
in the area. As of Tuesday morning, bids had reached $2,100.
The Nash2O auction website
indicates the guitar is a classic early '60s model made by National and that Urban "loved the throaty growl of this guitar
when it was cranked up." Other instruments currently up for bid include Duane Eddy's signature model Gibson electric,
Vince
Gill's prototype of a signature model Fender Telecaster,
Amy Grant's
McPherson acoustic and
Kathy Mattea's Taylor K15 Acoustic. The fourth
installment of the ongoing auction, featuring guitars from Peter Frampton and
Brad
Paisley, will begin on Nov. 29. All instruments were damaged in the Nashville flood in May and donated to raise money
for continuing flood relief efforts.
