The guitar model being used as "the canvas" is the DEAN ML, originally designed in 1976 by DEAN ZELINSKY, the founder of DEAN GUITARS. This is DIMEBAG DARRELL'S signature instrument, the exact model he played his whole life.

DIMEBAG DARRELL was a cherished individual who was highly respected by the music
industry and fans for his incredible talent and vibrant personality.

SIX-STRING MASTERPIECES debuted Jan 19-22 in Anaheim, California  in front of 50,000 people at NAMM, a massive music industry convention.  The exhibit had incredible response with many people saying it was the highlight of NAMM. The exhibit will now tour to no less than ten major US markets at top concert venues, musuems, music instrument retail stores and Fine Art Galleries during the spring and summer of 2006. At the completion of the tour, the Art Guitars will be auctioned off via one of NYC's top auction houses/galleries, with funds being donated to a foundation that supports Music Education in our schools.

"After the untimely passing of my friend Darrell Abbott, I am dedicated to keeping his name and image in the limelight. This promises to be a great event for the memory of Dimebag Darrell and a great cause with the charity. Thank you for your interest."
