A handmade guitar will be donated in a draw to one lucky winner who donates at least £10 to with all cash raised supporting the Guernsey Mind charity.
For each £10 donated a unique number will be allocated to the donator which will be randomly selected on December 12. Mind are hoping to raise £5,000 from the fundraiser.
Nearly £3,500 has been raised so far by 130 supporters, with just a few days left to enter.
The guitar has been manufactured by Établle who gave a lot of thought to the materials to use. The top is made from Hawaiian Koa and the main body is English walnut. Ziricote was been selected for the neck and fretboard which has a distinctive appearance and excellent sound.
The Guernsey Mind logo on the fretboard has been inlaid with crushed sapphire, which is believed tohave properties of protection, healing and calming.
These materials have been combined with high quality hardware with a Schaller Hannes bridge and custom finished Sperzel Trim Lok tuners.

Funds are donated via Just Giving. A confirmation will be sent and people need to send their confirmation email to maddy.diligent@guernseymind.org.gg.
Guernsey Mind also wanted to thank Étabelle Guitars who made the instrument, and to Alter Domus for sponsoring.
