Good morning, folks,
 
up for sale is my beloved Minnie from Germany. I never thought I would sell her, but things change in life ;-)
 
The thing that changed mine is that I met Angelina, a wonderful young lady of thirteen years who suffers from cystic fibrosis (mucoviscidose). I spontaneously decided to be a small part of a big charity gig in May 2009 to support her and her family. Friends have set up a website to coordinate the event. My aim is to raise money to help instantly, so every second dime that Minnie will bring me will be handed to Angelina's mother.
 
...oh, yeah, Minnie: a 1992 Essence in fine condition, four strings, long scale, flame maple top, maple core, nothing really fancy, I know ;-) I'm planning on lifting her up on eBay tonight, but I'll consider you gals and guys first, of course... some humble pix are here. email me with any questions, please...
 
Thank you for soliciting ;-), all the best to all of you, stay tuned,
 
your Christian

Christian the best of luck to you and your efforts.  In this world of hate and turmoil it is truly refreshing to see people share their love for one another.  Angelina, what a beautiful name for a beautiful young lady. The world can use a few more angels.  Christian you are setting an example for us all.  Thank you! All the best to Angelina, her family and friends.
 
Carl

Hi Christian. After getting to know you while you were in Texas, this doesn't surprise me one bit. You are indeed a fine example for us all.
