rexman182 Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Hello, I am new to the board but i am a huge green day fan and collector. I have found a guy who is selling a guitar signed by green day. He said that he won it in a charity raffle from a radio station in chicago. The signatures look sloppy but there is another guitar with the same brand and signature colors from another radio station give way? Can you guys help me out? Here is the guy selling the guitar Here is a radio station advertising a guitar from another state https://www.101x.com/blogs/jason-and-deb-0/win-guitar-signed-green-day It would be a great appreciation for you guys to help me
Liam Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 Judging by other signatures I've seen, it looks pretty legit. It's also the same guitar that they gave away during the RevRad tour for Knowledge. Of course the only way to be 100% sure it's real is to actually see them sign it
rexman182 Posted March 8, 2018 Author Posted March 8, 2018 Yeah i believe he won this last year in chicago when they were on tour.. Just wanted to see what your opinions were
IcyMoffatt Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 If I can make a suggestion for you to be sure the guy is saying the truth that he won a contest from a radio station, ask him which one it was and exactly when did it happen. Get all the informations you can from the guy and then contact the radio station in question to verify his story. Ask him/the radio station if there were any documents with the guitar that justify the authenticity of the signatures. For the signatures, Mike and Tré look legit. In Billie's case, the B looks a bit different from what he normally does (a vertical line followed by a "3" shape with a circle down). This time, it looks like a "8" shape instead of a "3". But, on some occasions, Billie did sign with a "8" shape.
rexman182 Posted March 8, 2018 Author Posted March 8, 2018 Awesome thanks! He said he got it from this station here http://www.95wiilrock.com Here is the letter of authenticity that the radio station had.. supposedly he had to ask for it to get it which was yesterday. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1qktUdGOL9X8O0ilwKrg4J5TBpBuNcGLjUea186dEIpU/edit What do you think? I looked up the guy who signed the cert and he works there http://www.95wiilrock.com/shows/john-perry-middays2/
Squashie Posted March 8, 2018 Posted March 8, 2018 That certificate looks odd. Why is the signature date 3-6-18, if the band signed & gave it to the station back in September? Why would the station not give the certificate of authenticity to the winner with the guitar? Also, looking at the original post by the station, the signatures on that guitar are in different locations than the one pictured here. Mike’s looks to be in the same general area, but Billie’s is not and Tre’s isn’t either. Could be legit, but those are things that I noticed/questioned.
rexman182 Posted March 8, 2018 Author Posted March 8, 2018 i gotcha! Yeah i don't know why they wouldn't give one right then and there. I emailed the radio station so we will see
