The
miles, and the concerts, and the music and the prayers and the soul sharing
just were not enough for this Christian artist. Mitch has generously
donated one of his personal instruments to be sold as a fund-raiser for
the Paynesville Community Service Center. I imagine giving up a guitar
for this artist as the same as giving up a piece of his soul. And
yet if you ever see him in concert you will realize that is exactly what
he does at each venue. Soul sharing and pushing people towards Jesus
are his priorities.
Mitch:
The theme that runs through my music is that the love of God is stronger
than anything else we will come up against. We human beings are imperfect
but God is perfect and He will complete a good work in us one day.
With my future performances and albums, I would like to point to Jesus
and His love for us. A love that is unwavering, tough, and bigger
than we are." ~Peace in Christ ~ Mitch McVicker ~
Although
Mitch isn’t sure of the year of this guitar, the serial number indicates
it as a 1988, 1989 or possibly 1990 Fender F-230CE. It is an acoustic/electric,
with 22 frets on a rosewood fingerboard, spruce top and rosewood sides
and back. The neck is straight, there is no significant fret wear, no major
nicks or blemishes on the finish, just the normal signs of wear that a
player’s instrument picks up over the years. It is personally signed by
Mitch with the words, “Peace of Christ, Mitch McVicker”. A padded Fender
gigbag was included with the guitar.
This
is the instrument Mitch used for a taping of the “700 Club” on 9/11/01.
He says he’s written a lot of music on this guitar, and we think it probably
has some good tunes left in it. |
