Jeff String bracelets - FOR charity + free bobblehead offer

edited September 2013 in Lost Dogs
This topic was raised once at the Porch and it sure seemed like a great idea.

see here ;-

viewtopic.php?f=4&t=205413

So after a little back and forth, it can finally be offered officially to those who were interested. Basically a charity incentive was run back in 2010 where people could buy stage used guitar strings as display and framing items from the bands guitars. The strings were retained after the two shows in Ireland 2010. A small quantity of those strings were held back to cover all eventualities with peoples orders at the times, and the decision was made to convert them and have them professionally made into bracelets.

Heres a photo of what they look like: -

They are only available in two options

one of Eddies strings which will be sold at $125

and

one of Jeffs strings - this will be sold at $75

There are only 5 of each as that was all that was left to make them with.

As I said they are being professionally made by a jeweller and as they are leather - they are adjustable so one size fits all.

All the proceeds will go to two charities: -

Healeb.org and Dana Farber Cancer Center

I have no idea how the tex deductible thing works in the states but I expect if this qualifies it will be made available.

Thanks to all

    gosh darn it Paul...LOL... WANT!

    Shit, if PJ just donated their used shit after every show, they could solve all the world's problems...

    Thank you PJ and those that made these happen. Amazing items and it's killing me not pulling the trigger for an EV bracelet...so cool!

    Theres been a massive response to these which was expected,

    I think all Eds are spoken for if all process as have asked so far, I will update once I know. At most I think there would be one left if any.

    Jeff? I think two have sold maybe three. There are at least two left still, and maybe 3.

    Again will update later

    please note until these are updated as sold, please keep your interest coming. It will very much be dealt with first come first served.

    There has been a lot of interest to date, but until they are paid for they remain available

    These look so very cool! I wish I could afford one right now but alas I can't.
    I'm sure those lucky enough to get one will be chuffed with it.
    (and it's pennies for charity :D )

    Hi Yvi, I doubt it, I think once the strings are gone they are gone, unless they can get some donated from the upcoming tours, which is always possible I guess

    pm sent *sigh* LOL
    this could be a nice early Birthday present to myself :D (I just to justify it somehow, my Birthday isn't before late September haha)
  • pdalowskypdalowsky Doncaster,UK Posts: 15,092
    on the basis that Yvi proceeds and Im sure she will....we are fresh out of Jeffs.

    They were not intending to use Ed's high E string due to it being pretty thin, however if there is demand, and someone wants that, they can use that string and make two bracelets max. The price will be reduced to reflect the thinner string

    $100.

    Strictly only 2

    Thanks to all for the tremendous interest

    The 'e' thin strings sadly won't work .. They are too think to cool properly so they have opted to make a necklace pendant type thing ... There will only be two ... As there's only two of this string .

    Picture to follow soon. Sorry to disappoint anyone asking for the E string bracelets
