Jerry Garcia's guitar could bring in $1 million for SPLC

[EarthFirst]

Jerry Garcia's custom-made guitar, called Wolf, is truckin' to auction.

Guernsey's says the Grateful Dead frontman's guitar will be offered May 31 at New York's Brooklyn Bowl.

The proceeds will go to the Alabama-based Southern Poverty Law Center .

It's being sold by "devoted Deadhead" Daniel Pritzker. The philanthropist, musician and film director bought it in 2002 at Guernsey's for $789,500. It could exceed $1 million this time.

1. Heard about this a few months ago. Posted it on FB and DU

What an outstanding gesture by whomever it is that runs Jerry's business these days (there was quite a fight over his ashes alone).

Grew up 20 minutes from The Mothership in Hampton. My brother went to 300+ shows.
