go on jonathan stick one up for a prize draw.
£5 a ticket, 600 tickets, 3 grand for you, nice old number 8 for one of us!

2 tickets please young man!

What a wonderful idea :D

Or, to save time and effort, you could just give it to me. We all know that I'd win anyway. :D

But seriously, if that did happen (which is obviously very, very unlikely), i wouldn't hesitate to buy a few tickets.

Doing a sweepstake kind of thing sounds quite appealing but I'm not sure if you'd need to have a gambling license to do so  or what the ramifications of being caught running such a scheme without a license.

It may be different if you were doing it for charity  or to fund a good cause (other than paying your bills)

Anyone know the ins and outs of that?

How about this as a colour for one of the  darker ones?

Personally... I like the idea but it doesn't match the fretboard nicely and it looks "dry" and "papery". It need to be glossier.
Maybe if the fretboard had binding it would match better.

It was just the colour I was mulling over....

Well, in that case, I think it's a great colour to go for. I think 8 or 11 would look great in that colour.

I like that colour!

And the gold hardware!

Of course, the guitar in the pic would look much better with neck binding.  But I know yours would have that anyway.

I'm pretty sure it would be ok done on a strictly private basis especially if you donated a small portion to a charity of your choice.

I didn't have time to read it all, but the answer is probably in here:

http://www.gamblingcommission.gov.uk/gambling_sectors/lotteries.aspx

There is something called a "customer lottery", but it looks like it has to be not-for-profit.

There is something called a "customer lottery", but it looks like it has to be not-for-profit.

And it looks like none of the prizes must be over £50 in value :(

I've only quickly skimmed it as well, though. Overall it looks like a bit too much of a pain in the @rse...

If you did go for it Jonathan, I too would be up for few tickets...

Looks like it might be a bit of a nightmare, though. I kept clicking "how much does it cost" links on that site. And each time it took me to another page that was basically saying "well, it all depends..."
