I love how she made the knobs into eyes!

I thought she'd be more colorful with it.

It is cute, though. The eyes have it.

I was thinking the same thing, I was expecting more color.

Is that a child's hand print? It's not Stevie's right? Looks too small to be hers but I cannot get a good look at it, the photos scroll to fast. Besides, I cannot see Stevie sticking her hand in a pile of paint and putting her hand on a guitar!

I LOVE it and think it is very typical of something Stevie would do. All the little words and sayings and of course, Rhiannon.

This guitar was actually originally up for auction on guitarcenter.com. It must not have met the minimum bid there, although last time I'd looked there were at least 15 bids.

What the page doesn't really make clear is that it's for charity... It's being auctioned off for a GREAT charity headed up by Greg Grunberg, one of my favorite actors, to benefit his foundation for research and treatment of pediatric epilepsy. His son has it, and he's done great work trying to further research and treat underprivileged kids with it. Mick also had one up for auction, along with a ton of other people, musicians like Sting, and actors like Jen Garner and other cast members for Alias. When fandoms collide! Whee. I don't know if Mick's sold or if it's also on eBay now.

I think it's awesome Stevie did this, and I hope people buy it.

ETA: Here's Mick's.

Mick's has handprints too. Is that part of the required decoration for some reason because the charity is for children with epilepsy? That is an adorable concept. I like Stevie's alot more...it is just so STEVIE!

I like Stevie's too. I do wish she had either left off the border or spent a little more time on it, but everything else I love, the eyes on the knobs and her little Stevie sketch, very cute and very Stevie!
