Bebo Nor­man says the lim­it­ed-edi­tion gui­tar, which was a gift from the mak­er, is price­less. Pho­to cour­tesy to The Den­ver Post

Chris­t­ian record­ing artist Bebo Nor­man is auc­tion­ing a lim­it­ed-edi­tion gui­tar on Ebay to help Com­pas­sion Inter­na­tion­al’s relief efforts in Haiti. The auc­tion start­ed Fri­day, Jan. 15 and runs through Fri­day, Jan. 22 (8 p.m. Cen­tral Time). ALL pro­ceeds will go to Com­pas­sion, which is based in Col­orado Springs.

“I hon­est­ly can’t place a val­ue on this gui­tar since it is Num­ber 00–01 in a very lim­it­ed pro­duc­tion (only 128 were made) and has been in my per­son­al gui­tar col­lec­tion as one of my pri­ma­ry ‘song­writ­ing gui­tars’ for 10 years,” said Nor­man in a press release. “This gui­tar has been the source of quite a few of my songs (“Noth­ing With­out You,” “Try,” “Bor­row Mine”), spent one year on tour with me, and is in absolute­ly amaz­ing con­di­tion. This gui­tar is price­less as far as I’m con­cerned.”

The hand­made Everett Lau­rel gui­tar was a gift from Kent Everett to Nor­man. The cur­rent bid as of Sun­day night was $2,650
