Former Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash is teaming up with Julian's Entertainment Memorabilia Auctions House for a Beverly Hills collector's sale of personal property, jewelry, clothing, guitars, furniture and décor from his Hollywood Hills residence.
"I have a bad habit of collecting stuff that I don't necessarily use," says Slash. One of the perils of being a successful rock star for more than 20 years is that money buys a lot of clutter.
On the auction block:
- A 1966 Corvette Stingray (currently garaged);
- 14 guitars (a Guild acoustic, Telecaster, Stratocaster, Sanchez, Epiphone and B.C. Rich models);
- Skull motif clothing and jewelry (necklaces, cuffs, Cartier Roadstar wristwatch);
- T-shirts (from all phases of his life);
- Two trademark top hats;
- Model dinosaurs (Slash is a huge dinosaur fan);
- Ray-Ban Large Aviator sunglasses;
- Carved polychrome painted and gilded armoire;
- Pair of monumental red suede conversation sofas;
- Pair of silver and black beaded skull pillows;
"My house was completely immersed in prehistoric animal lore," when he started dating his wife [Perla Ferrar-Hudson], Slash said. But she married him anyway.
The March 26th auction will benefit Los Angeles Youth Network.
