Cello transition fund

Goose was the best cello, even though (nay... especially because) she honked. 

I will miss her.  Read about our story together here  .  But these things happen, we must move on. 

My insurance is mostly covering the cost of a replacement.  I've picked one out, it's good.  But I still need to cover sales tax and a new hard case.  This fundraiser is for that:

2k can cover the transition to a new cello, anything above that will be applied to recording and production costs for the new music I was working on when Goose was destroyed.

I hope that my community of friends and listeners can contribute a little ($5, $10, $20 or more) to help me around this bend.  Every little bit helps.

This cello was the grandma of all my instruments.  More importantly, this cello first produced my sound, guided me in developing my playing style and the one with whom I've traveled the most.  It's a huge personal loss, one which I'm still processing.

All my love and gratitude to you kind listeners, family, friends and supporters.
This is a tough moment for me, please help if you can.
Thanks,
Trevor Exter
