I dunno about THAT... if she does auction it off, where is the guitar going to end up? In a glass box somewhere, hanging on a wall? Maybe it would be better off in the care of a loving owner like Fulghum who would play it all the time and treat it right.

Perhaps she could let you borrow it for a while, just to see how much pleasure it gives you. Then when someone gets round to appraising it she'll be reluctant to take it away from you! Well, it's a nice thought anyway.
