edited December 2014 in Guitars £

Firstly I'm editing this from my phone which I've never done before so if anything looks weird bear with me. 


From now until the weekend I'm dropping the price of this very nice acoustic to £225 which I'd say is a pretty good deal. Here's what I'd like to happen: you make a donation of £110 to the charity of your choice. Send me the confirmation email of your donation, and a paypal gift of £115. I'll then make a donation of £110 to a charity of my choice, mail you a copy of the confirmation and get the guitar in the post for no extra cost (in the mainland uk). If you so choose, you ought to be able to sell the guitar for £300 or so, so you're not going to lose out here. I've only just come up with this idea, so if anyone sees any problems with how it all works do let me know. Hopefully we can get this done in the next couple of days, obviously most of us are busy with family stuff but I'll try to respond to any messages reasonably promptly. Here's the details on the guitar from my original post:
