Featuring an exotic custom veneer top, Di-marzio pickups and Music Man vintage tremolo, this special model is one of only five on the planet. In addition to the guitar, the winning bidder will receive an autographed copy of System of A Down’s brand new release “Hypnotize” and twelve sets of Ernie Ball Skinny-Top Heavy Bottom guitar strings, Daron Malakian’s favorite gauge. AC/DC, Metallica, Iron Maiden, and Slash have also signed guitars in this exclusive series up for bid on eBay throughout the year.
Currently the world’s largest private pediatric kidney foundation, the Casey Lee Ball Foundation is a non-profit organization working for the advancement of pediatric kidney research. Casey Lee Ball, third son of Sterling Ball, was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease at age two. At age five, while Casey and Sterling were recuperating from kidney transplant surgery, they decided to create the Casey Lee Ball Foundation. As a result of their tireless efforts over the last eleven years, several new medicines have made it to the market in record time and are helping to reduce the side effects of kidney transplant medications.
