SFF Presents is offering a limited-entry raffle for the fourth consecutive year in conjunction with the 2026 Big Ponderoo Music + Art Festival, taking place June 26 & 27 at Village Green Park in Sisters, Oregon. One lucky winner will have the chance to take home a custom dreadnought guitar made by the esteemed local craftspeople at Breedlove Guitars.
Tickets can be purchased online at www.bigponderoo.com/#raffle, in person at the SFF Presents office at 204 W. Adams Ave., Suite 101 in Sisters (by cash or credit card), or at the Big Ponderoo merchandise tent during the festival, while supplies last. Only 400 raffle tickets will be sold at $25 each.
The featured prize is as stunning visually as it is sonically. Built with a Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides, a koa rosette, and a satin edgeburst finish, the guitar blends timeless craftsmanship with distinctive festival flair. A custom inlay on the ebony fretboard commemorates the 2026 Big Ponderoo festival, making it a true collector’s piece.
The one-of-a-kind roots dreadnought features Breedlove’s ebony pinless bridge for quick and easy string changes, a comfortable Slim V mahogany neck, and an LR Baggs Anthem pickup system for rich, natural amplified tone. Strung with Elixir Phosphor Bronze light-gauge strings, this dreadnought delivers powerful projection, warm resonance, and exceptional balance across the tonal spectrum. Whether finger-picked or strummed full-force, this guitar absolutely sings.
Proceeds from the raffle will support SFF Presents’ cultural outreach and educational programming throughout Central Oregon, helping to expand access to the arts across the region through a variety of scholarship opportunities and programming initiatives.
The winning ticket will be drawn Saturday, June 27 at 7:30 p.m. from the Ponderoo Stage at Village Green Park, before a performance by Fruition. The winner need not be present to win.
