Custom Guitar Design For Autism Charity.
Early last summer after meeting and becoming friends with jewelry designer Rich Wright, we started collaborating on a couple of design projects on the side and after the hours of our day gigs. A mutual love for music and all things rock-n-roll naturally guided us to try our hand at designing custom guitars. Collectively, we thought that these guitars might be a great way to give back to our community by selecting a few well deserving charities and auctioning off these guitars to create awareness as well as raise much needed money for those charities. Our latest effort goes to benefit the charity Artists for Autism. Artists for Autism utilizes various forms of art – drawing, music, and much more – to connect with people with autism.
To benefit Artists for Autism, Rick and I have created a Ted Nugent themed design we are calling “The Battle Axe.” This guitar features custom designed sterling silver hardware, bear claw volume and tone knobs designed by Rich and Nugent Zebra theme graphics featuring an illustration of Ted that I created. Ted has offered to sign the guitar and has been very helpful in getting the word out about the auction. The Nugent Battle Axe Guitar will be auctioned off on Ebay starting near the end of March. Details and a link to the auction will be available at their web site within the next week .
