The Townsville Bulletin is running a competition in which the grand prize is a white Yamaha baby grand, autographed by Elton.
The contest, run in association with Yamaha Music Australia, will start in Saturday’s newspaper with an entry form for readers to cut out.
Readers will then have to collect a coupon from the Bulletin every day next week to enter.
The winner will be announced on the night of the icon’s North Queensland concert after the support act has performed.
It is believed this will be the world’s first white Yamaha baby grand piano signed by Sir Elton.
He’s taken the signing pen out before on six black Yamaha pianos and also a limited-edition release of 50 red pianos produced for the company.
One of those red instruments was sold recently for more than US$50,000.
