Jack White to auction White Stripes guitar and his personal Tesla to help revive Detroit’s Clark Park

A portion of the proceeds from the auction will go to Southwest Detroit’s Clark Park Coalition, in order to help revive the historic public park.

Jack White and Third Man Records have partnered with Everything But The House to auction memorabilia from his garage and the label’s archives.

Some of the items included in the auction are an acoustic guitar from The White Stripes' “We’re Going To Be Friends” music video, White’s blue Ernie Ball St. Vincent guitar used on the Boarding House Reach tour, the bright yellow vintage CitiCar Third Man Records used to deliver the World’s Fastest Record, gear from the Third Man Studio, props from The Raconteurs’ Consolers of the Lonely album shoot, and Jack White’s personal 2013 Tesla Model S.

Jack White recently hit out at Elon Musk's management of Twitter in an Instagram post, writing, "How's that "free speech" thing working out?"

In August 2020, White and Third Man auctioned off guitars, Meg White’s crash cymbal, and the drum kit from the White Stripes’ “Hardest Button to Button” music video to benefit the John Peel Centre, Gideon’s Army, and the Detroit Phoenix Center.
