Wes Borland has put his old guitars and honors for sale to raise money for cat rescue organizations
April 6, 2016
Limp Bizkit‘s Wes Borland, who currently resides in Detroit, has posted an impressive offer on eBay for Limp Bizkit fans. The guitarist is ready to say goodbye to his sales plaques, selected guitars and honors. A portion of the proceeds will go to cat rescue organizations in Detroit.
To be more exact, Borland is going to auction off the band’s Grammy nominee honors, sales plaques for Limp Bizkit albums from various parts of the world. The guitarist is also parting ways with some of his old guitars. Check out the full list of the items for sale below. If you’re enthralled with the chance to own some of the items in Borland’s list, you can make a bid till Monday, April 11, which is the final day of bidding on most of the items.
Does it mean Borland is about to exit the band? In order to nip in the bud these rumors, Limp Bizkit guitarist has posted the following commentary on his Instagram page:
DUDE: no, LB isn’t over, nor does me selling a bunch of stuff that’s taking up space have anything to do with my feelings about the band. I don’t like gold records. I think they look tacky and I don’t need them to remind me of what I’ve done. I don’t need a bunch of old guitars either that don’t get played. This is the equivalent of selling bad haircuts that you had when you were in high school. It’s fucking awesome to give people that want this stuff the chance to have it instead of it going into the Hard Rock in Warsaw or wherever. There’s a bunch up on my eBay store now.
Limp Bizkit released their latest album to date back in 2011. Since then, a few singles have dropped from the next record, ‘Stampede of the Disco Elephants,’ but the album details haven’t surfaced yet.
