The homelessness charity Crisis is in line for a handy boost to its funds, as a unique Fender Stratocaster guitar comes up for auction courtesy of the specialist website, BuyOnceGiveTwice.co.uk. The instrument has been individually painted by Gerald Scarfe, the artist who collaborated with the band with great effect on The Wall project, and it has also been signed by the band!

As if that wasn't enough, a very limited edition book and set of prints celebrating his work on The Wall is coming out in July, signed by Gerald and Roger Waters, and the auction will include the very desirable edition number 001 out of the total 300 copies. We'll be bringing you full information on this collection later today.

A wonderful, unique pair of items, which we are sure will raise a huge amount of cash for Crisis!
