NEW YORK -American singer Taylor Swift, actor Bradley Cooper and Australian singer Keith Urban have donated guitars to a celebrity country music auction, as they bid to raise funds for everyday workers in the industry whose livelihoods have been devastated by the coronavirus pandemic.

The electric guitar Cooper played as washed-up country singer Jackson Maine in his 2018 film, A Star Is Born, is also up for sale, with an estimate price of US$2,000 to US$4,000. "When the pandemic hit in the spring, Nashville was hit pretty hard," said Ms Nancy Valentino from Christie's business development department.

Other auction items include a bedazzled dulcimer owned by country singer Dolly Parton for 30 years , Grammy-winning musician Sheryl Crow's vintage Baldoni accordion and guitars owned by singers Keith Urban, Dwight Yoakam, Blake Shelton and Vince Gill.
