MUSIC SAVES  LIVES, the trusted conduit between music, entertainment and
important  life-saving causes, has joined forces with GIBSON GUITARS in an effort
to raise  money and awareness of life saving issues by auctioning off TWO
specially  designed Gibson guitars.

These one-of-a-kind, hand painted, custom Gibson guitars were created in
hopes that they encourage, educate, and support the life saving efforts made by
MUSIC SAVES LIVES.  Each masterpiece  was painted by artists, Mike Oncley,
Colby Nichols and Josh Kenyon, in its raw,  unassembled state then put together
to create an irreplaceable work of art.  In addition, each decked out guitar
has  been autographed by music artists who support MSL and all that they aspire
to  do.  With these special collector’s  items, MUSIC SAVES LIVES and GIBSON
hope to reach out and bring people together  who share a common passion of
helping those with life threatening  issues.

The title  and artist of each dynamic design are as follows:

Each of the guitars above will be put on the auction  block by Unite the
United Foundation.  In addition, two more Gibson guitars, signed by the Bouncing
Souls and  Reel Big Fish are soon to be auctioned.   Donated by Gibson, these
guitars represent the history as well as the future of the electric guitar.
The  models whose designs have become classics are a testament to Gibson's wide appeal, spanning more than four decades of music styles.
Being part of the music industry, drummer and artist, Mike Oncley creates
from a practical state in many mediums.  Mike has worked with musical artists
creating themed art around the  lunching of new albums, and has a passion for
film making.  Mike made a time-lapse video of his  guitar creation that can be

Approaching his work with a light-heart, Colby Nichols’  love for line and
shape mix with his humor and passion for oddity to create  complex stories that
guide us to the very core of his strange brain.  Using painstaking detail,
Josh Kenyon  illustrates scenes filled with complex patterns and intricate
line-work. His  style pushes limits of the mind making it easy to get lost in his
mesmerizing  work. Both Josh and Colby graduated with honors from the Art
Institute of  California, San Diego.

Since its  start in 2005, the MUSIC SAVES LIVES community has grown to be a
trusted source  for young individuals that care about life-saving issues. MSL
has focused its  main efforts on blood donation and the bone marrow registry,
