    Ooooh, only just seen this, glad I caught it before the cut off date! 

    A nice pink Strat would complement my pink Tele nicely!

    Hi all, 

    Thank you for your support so far. We have a new raffle : https://raffall.com/325785/enter-raffle-to-win-epiphone-goldtop-les-paul-hosted-by-james-holding

    In this one, I am raffling off my own 2020 Epiphone 50's standard Les Paul, except I upgraded the pickups for Gibson Custom Buckers. 2020 was the year Epiphone became even better - new headstock shape, better qc and really this guitar is lovely to play.

    Normally the gear in this project is all Pink, but the raffle that was supposed to be on right now I postponed because one of our contributor's had some family things to deal with and I wanted to give him time. So, I've put my guitar up in the hope of keeping the project visible and raising more money.

    Hi all,

    In this one, I am raffling off my own 2020 Epiphone 50's standard Les Paul, except I upgraded the pickups for Gibson Custom Buckers. 2020 was the year Epiphone became even better - new headstock shape, better qc and really this guitar is lovely to play.

So, I've put my guitar up in the hope of keeping the project visible and raising more money.

    Well, I was lucky enough to win this guitar. I got the tix because I thought it was a good cause then I got a message from James after new year to let me know I'd won.

    I've always had a soft spot for the Goldtop since I saw Pearl Thompson used one around the Wish Tour era.

    I was happy to support the breast cancer charity and James was an absolute pleasure to deal with once the raffle was won (though I think he forgot to send my pink breast cancer awareness guitar cable ; ) ). I can only imagine that anyone else winning a raffle would have a similarly positive & easy experience to me.

    I've only had it a day or two but first impression: the guitar feels and sounds very good. It seems really well put together and the gold top is lovely. The pickups sound fab and clear across all strings when strumming - I can't comment on the pickups which were originally in the guitar but I would easily recommend one of these guitars if they're all like this one. 

    So a thank you to James - and all the best for your wife's recovery.

    i really hope you enjoy the guitar for a long time to come ;)

    Hey all,

    thanks for all the support with our last raffle!

    We have a new one for a Pink Strat Partscaster with sunbear pickups in, and a hand wired Germanium Treble Booster that sounds and looks great!

    There are some clips on our Insta @thepinkguitarproject with Aynsley Lister playing that you could check out.

    The raffle is here: https://raffall.com/333341/enter-raffle-to-win-pink-stratocaster-pedal-hosted-by-james-holding

    hey all! There's a new and rather exciting charity raffle up now :)  

    This is for a fuzz face pedal that was made just for the project! If you check out our instagram page @thepinkguitarproject you'll see some clips, and more to come, of the pedal being played by some of my favourite players - JD Simo, Joey Landreth, Philip Sayce, Jared James Nichols, Ariel Posen and Aaron Hiebert. This things sounds insane! I've been playing it at home and will be sad to see it go!

    The raffle has about 9 days left to go so good luck if you do enter!

    Hi everyone! Thank you so much for your support on the last raffle, for the Pink Fuzz, where we raised £3000 for Breast Cancer Now.

    We currently have another raffle on the go. This one is for a Thorpy FX The Dane, but a very special one in pink with serial number PD1! Thorpy and Pete have been wonderful in helping us spread the word and so far this raffle is doing really well.

    If you'd like to buy a ticket, you can here: https://raffall.com/343529/enter-raffle-to-win-pink-thorpy-fx-the-dane-hosted-by-james-holding

    I also had a great time collecting the pedal from Pete - he is a genuinely warm and lovely guy. We made this little video just to help spread the word on this raffle - https://youtu.be/69SqHwJc3Lo

    thanks for your support if you buy a ticket!

    Well I have purchased £10 credit on raffall but can't see how to apply that to the pink Dane raffle, what am I missing?
    The raffle isn't showing as closed. so how do I turn my credit into tickets on this raffle?
    Don't touch that dial.
