Dimebag Darrell Guitar Art Tribute Pics

Bob Tyrrell Guitar

I went down to Sunset Station today to check out the Six-String Masterpieces: Dimebag Darrell Art Tribute today. There were so many awesome guitars, designed by musicians - everyone from Marilyn Manson to Moby (and Kelly Clarkson - whom I wasn't sure would be my first choice to design a Dimebag Darrell guitar, but, being a chick, I kinda liked hers, I'll admit it!). And some awesome artists - a lot of famous tattoo artists.

I was glad to see, while I was there, a constant flow of people going in and out, donating money to support art and music education in memory of Dimebag. It was a little surreal, in a way...the hushed atmosphere as everyone remembered Dimebag Darrell and marveled at the beautiful guitars and the work these people put into them in memory of Dimebag Darrell.

Photos of all the guitars and close-ups of most of them are over on the SA Rocks Yahoo Group, in the Photos section. Check 'em out!!

ADDED NOTE: I have also put some pics of the guitars at:
