MK's First Guitar

[Hoops McCann]

Perhaps the Hofner was actually auctioned in 2007 and the person that ended up with it gave it back to MK. Who knows- I can't find a list of what was auctioned in 2007 anywhere.

I did find this. The auction listing is by Mark & David Knopfler so maybe the two of them together decided to put the guitar up for sale, which somehow makes me feel a lot better!

Thanks for that, but I guess that just adds to the mystery behind this one.

Or maybe it's just an indication that both of them had already played the guitar sometime in the past. But oh how I'd like to think the whole thing was set up in a more friendly way...

So Freddie Mercury and The Beatles also decided to participate the auction then?

I recall that the guitar was between that objects or that Mk was holding the guitar himself.

This?
