Bowie's Very Own Signed Guitar On Ebay Now!

Ziggy played (this) guitar...(well perhaps not Ziggy, but David Bowie did!)

The BowieNet/eBay auctions have resumed for one week only for a very special auction indeed. Why so special? Well, the blurb from the auction page says it best, so here it is:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

David Bowie SIGNED Yamaha F-310 acoustic guitar David Bowie and BowieNet are proud to present this unique Charity Auction for a very special cause...

The item in question is a very special one, indeed...a Yamaha F-310 acoustic guitar signed by David. All proceeds from this auction are to benefit a cause that is special as well: Mychal's Learning Place.

Mychal's Learning Place believes that children with developmental disabilities should be provided with opportunities that encourage them to reach their full potential. Their mission: to challenge and assist these children to build self esteem and encourage independence through goal oriented activities.

This signed guitar will be their main source of funding the year, so bid knowing that you will be helping a truly honorable cause.

Auction Includes: One Yamaha F-310 acoustic guitar, signed by David Bowie Includes a print-out of David's letter testifying to his use of the guitar.

For those struggling to read David's COA in the image above (sorry about the huge file btw, but it's all in a good cause) here are the words again:

"I used this guitar for a long time. It travelled around the world with me. It has been my companion guitar for strumming on the porch or writing sitting on the beach, and I hope it gives you as much as it's given me." - David Bowie - March 2002

With 8 days to go, the bidding is currently at $1,125.00 - But that's nowhere near enough just yet! So if you know any extremely rich folk who need a jolly nice guitar, point them in the direction of the BowieNet Auctions Page now, and let them enjoy a good old fashioned bidding frenzy!
