the police auction The Police Auction Signed Instruments on Ebay
The soon-to-be-disbanded Police played their final concert ever on August 7 at Madison Square Garden and to celebrate it, the band has donated a complete set of autographed instruments to be auctioned online through eBay.

The auction has been running for the last few weeks, and the band has already raised over $50,000 from the sale of VIP ticket packages to the final show. Beginning August 4, a complete set of The Police’s instruments autographed by the band will be available for bidding.

The set includes 4 instruments that are each available for bidding separately and include Sting’s Signature Bass, Sting’s Sennheiser Microphone and Stand, Andy’s Signature Fender Telecaster, and Stewart’s Tama Star Drum Set.

100% of the proceeds from the auctions will benefit Public Television Rocks!, an initiative formed between NY Public Television stations, Thirteen/WNET and WLIW21. The Police chose to support these stations in recognition of their contributions to art, music, and culture.

The auction is running on eBay until August 14.
