Is a guitar signed for an auction by a good cause a fake, as it's not really been played by the artist?

I remember on Spotify one could win a Squier signed by Michael Stipe... now THAT is a fake to me!

Yeah.....but who said a single word about the artist playing the instrument in question. :?:

The plaque simply reads the name of the autograph, it might as well be a piece of paper.....it doesn't even have to reference what type of instrument the artist is typically associated with. It's totally irrelevant in the opinion of HRC.

I have plenty of objections to HRC (most regard their utterly diabolical food), but they certainly don't make any untrue claims about their artifacts.

I happen to love their food...

It's like Eric Claptons auction for his "good" cause... where copies, one-time-pose-for-auction guitars etc were sold for a lot of money. I just don't get the people who spend so much money - just because he touched the object for a picture in the auction brochure???
