Shop and as a bonus you are given entries. There is a limited number of entries. In this case it's 350. However, there is also a deadline at midnight on the 12th of March.

If at midnight the total has not reached 350 then the total number of entries is however many entries have been allocated at that time. In other words the giveaway ends no matter if the beginning total is reached or not. On the other hand if the beginning total is reached before the deadline, then the giveaway ends before the deadline. So the giveaway ends either on the deadline or when 350 entries are obtained, whichever comes first.

The drawing will be conducted live on youtube on March 13th. For each entry a person has, their name is placed on a spreadsheet. Google's random number generator is used to choose one entry from the total number of entries, and that person is the winner. So the more entries a person has, the better their chances, because their name is on the spreadsheet more times. 5 entries increases your chances by 5X, 10 entries by 10X and 20 entries by 20X!

Nothing is more important than ensuring your entries are properly counted and entered into the drawing. I have a robust system that pulls reports from the website and inserts them into a customized Excel macro sheet that gives me the total entries for each person. There are several systems in place that allow me to manually add up the numbers from the report and compare them against the excel macro to ensure a match and therefore accuracy. Furthermore the excel macro has a feature that allows me to enter a name and return the total number of entries for that name. Before each drawing I use this to randomly choose names and check the total entries. I then check this number against the original reports. Simply put all these systems allow me to guarantee everyone’s entries are entered and 100% accurate.

As to what happens to the guitars, they are most definitely shipped to the winners.

All it takes is a little bit of investigation to prove this is legit. Here's a step by step. 

1) Check out the list of previous winners at the bottom of the site, holding a guitar365 winner's flyer, and take note of the guitars they are holding that they have won

2) Go to our instagram and facebook pages to see all the guitars that have already been given away. Note they are the same guitars that the winners are holding in their pictures. 

You can check out the instagram page with over 300 followers here https://www.instagram.com/guitar365official

and you can check out the facebook page with over 1000 followers here. https://www.facebook.com/guitar365dotco

3) Go to our youtube channel and watch my interviews with the winners. Notice these are the same people in the winners area on the site, holding the same guitars shown on instagram and facebook. 

You can view find the youtube channel here https://www.youtube.com/@guitar365official

4) On the youtube channel watch the past live draws (under the "live" section on youtube). Notice how the name picked using google random number generator is the same name with the picture in the winners area, holding the same guitar shown on instagram and facebook. 

Hopefully this explanation helps to earn your trust, but sometimes just talking with the owner is what seals the deal, so feel free to send me a dm on any channel whether that be email, facebook or instagram if you have further questions.

Fourteen guitars have already been given away. The first winner's name came up on the live draw on August 12th. Afterwards I sent him a few emails and did not hear from him for a day or two as he was working out of town. I wanted to give him the big news over the phone so I told him I needed to talk to him and it was important. He decided to watch the live draw replay as he had an inkling something might be up. Still, he was blown away to see his name get drawn as the winner. His guitar was shipped August 21st and it arrived at his door on August 29th.

When the second winner's name was drawn, I saw he had left a phone number so I called him during the live draw and he picked up on the second call. I told him he had won and I think he was in a bit of shock. He said it didn't feel real until the guitar showed up at his door seven days later and then it finally began to sink in.

The third winner could not be called live but I got ahold of him quickly. Here's the email: "Hi Mark,

You're name was picked - congrats. You got the tele. Please get back to me so we can talk about the next steps. Thanks"

"Whaaaaat?? Really?? Wow!!

Very excited!!

Ready to talk when you are."

His name was drawn Oct 20th and his new guitar arrived at his doorstep just five days later.

And here's the exchage with the fourth winner: "Hey Brent. The live draw just finished up. Good news - you got the fire tiger. Please get back to me at your earliest convenience. Thanks

Are you kidding me!?!?
That is INCREDIBLE!!!!
What’s the next step? What do I do?"

If anyone is concerned about their credit card information, I can tell you that I can only see the last 4 numbers, so I can't take your card info and go have a ball at guitar center. And if you use paypal, I can't see any of the card info, but any of the payment methods are 100% safe and secure.
