You will be asked to set up a user name and password. Once you do this, it will work much like ebay. &lt;strong&gt;IMPORTANT&lt;\\/strong&gt; for international bidders: the username and password form is in USA address format. \\u00a0To overcome this, simply place \\u201cNH\\u201d in the State field and leave the rest blank. This will allow you to register. If you have any problems registering, please reply to this email and I will help.&lt;span&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;\\/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Can I see the guitar before the auction?&lt;\\/strong&gt; If you live in Northern California, yes. The guitar will be displayed at Granite Chief ski shop starting later this week. It will also be only display the last night of the auction at Plaza Bar\\/Bar One in Squaw Valley.

It\\u2019s a collector\\u2019s piece. You can always donate it to a third party (like a music charity) or perhaps even to Shane\\u2019s family.&lt;span&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;&lt;\\/span&gt;Thank you in advance for any help you can give us with this effort. It is very much appreciated.
