Probably posted elsewhere. The guitar - a signature Jerry Donahue Telecaster

More than a few of those ‘names’ could easily have donated £10k individually, and not even have missed it.
Poor show imo.
For all you know they have! This is something Peggy has initiated and this way he gets lots of publicity. Plus someone gets a fabulous guitar.


For all you know they haven’t.

Some good news!

"A huge thankyou to the lovely purchaser who paid £22,000 for the Telecaster guitar. Thanks to Houlgate Auctions - Matt Worley, Tony Kelsey, Lars Mullen - JHS for providing the guitar - and all the great guitarists who signed this very special instrument. The display case is made by Rob Conway of RandR Showcase. This sale will really help Jerry and we all send him our love.

Cheers and thanks, Peggy."

"This guitar has been signed by rock royalty.

"It's like a Who's Who of the greatest musicians the UK has ever produced."
