The Prize

Exclusive, 100% authenticated and hand-signed in March 2022 by Rock royalty Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend of The Who, this stunning Stratocaster is a truly unique collector’s piece.

The inspiring sound of a Stratocaster is one of the foundations of Fender. Featuring the classic sound -bell-like high end, punchy mids and robust low end, combined with crystal-clear articulation - the Player Stratocaster is versatile enough to handle any style of music and it’s the perfect platform for creating your own sound.

The Who are one of the most influential rock bands of the 20th century and have sold more than 100 million records worldwide. Pete Townshend’s feedback and power chord guitar is legendary, making this prize even more spectacular.

 We are incredibly grateful to Roger and Pete for their kind donation.

The funds raised from this auction will contribute towards Music Support’s core services, including our peer-led confidential Helpline that saw a 60% increase in volume of calls during the Global Pandemic.

Thank you for supporting our crucial efforts in helping those who work in music and live events affected by mental ill-health and/or addiction by bidding on this formidable guitar.

The Cause

Music Support is a charity that helps peers who work in UK music and live events affected by mental ill-health and/or addiction.

We empower our peers to look after the wellbeing of their colleagues (and themselves) through training in Mental Health First Aid and Addiction and Recovery Awareness to prevent them reaching crisis point but, if required, our confidential Helpline, managed by industry peers with lived experience, is available Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm on 0800 030 6789. We offer everything from a non-judgmental listening ear service through to referrals to expert clinicians and care providers for mental health or addiction assessments, therapy and rehab. You are not alone.

We rely on funds to help to continue our vital work.
