Earnest “Guitar” Bailey, a guitar tech during Nirvana’s Nevermind Tour is being sued by a Phil Gross, a Canadian businessman, for fraud. Gross was led to believe the left-handed Fender Stratocaster he received from Bailey in a trade was used by Kurt Cobain on his last concert tour.
The guitar was declared a fake when Gross brought it to a “famous British rock-collectibles auction house.”http://www.roadrun.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=17747
