The guitar's not the only one
"The Beatles' original handwritten signed score for 'Whilst My Guitar Gently Weeps', the last piece of Beatles memorabilia ever created, sold for $690,00 at the Barrett Jackson Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona." —Reuters photo caption

Would that be Lynne Truss crying over another misplaced comma?
I do like the wildly differing accounts of this story:
"Some handwritten lyrics from George Harrison brought in a pretty penny at a memorabilia auction this week, although not as much as expected. Harrison's original set of lyrics for the Beatles song "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"... went for $300,000."
Barrett-Jackson’s rock ’n’ roll memorabilia beats expectations...the hand-written lyrics to “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” ...sold for $60,000.
