A collection of rare guitars donated to a charity shop anonymously has sold for more than £12,000 at auction.

The six valuable guitars – which include two favoured by Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan – and an amp were donated to the Oxfam shop in Witney towards the end of 2024.

Among those sold was a Gibson Custom Shop Banner 1942 J-45 acoustic guitar, which was a personal favourite of Elvis Presley. It sold for £2,200. 



A Martin D-28 acoustic guitar – favoured by artists like Dylan and Neil Young – fetched £3,400.

The collection was sold at Ewbank’s auction house in Woking, Surrey, BBC News reports.
