Bruce Springsteen's piano up for auction

A piano once owned by Bruce Springsteen is being auctioned off on eBay to the highest bidder.

The piano resided in the Boss' New York apartment from 1977-1979 when he was living with former girlfriend Lynn Goldsmith, who now owns the piano.

He reportedly wrote several songs on it, many of which appeared on his 1980 album 'The River'.

The instrument was also played by music legends including Bob Dylan, Keith Richards and Patti Smith.

It is up for sale for a minimum bid of $10,000 via Symbolic Collection, an organisation that specialises in rare music collectibles, and will come with a certificate of authenticity.

Those interested in bidding can do so here, but keep in mind it must be picked up in San Diego, California.
