Where Innovation Meets Revolution - Tom Morello's "Arm The Homeless" Guitar
As architect of Rage Against the Machine's groundbreaking sound, Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Famer Tom Morello revolutionized guitar with his monstrous riffs and boundary-breaking techniques. His heavily modified 'Arm the Homeless' guitar became legendary and has been his primary instrument for over 35 years, channeling everything from delicate jazz phrases to searing metal riffs through its distinctive active electronics and Gotoh® double-locking tremolo system. Adorned with its provocative slogan and his own hand-drawn hippopotamus design against its striking blue ice metallic finish, this guitar masters its role as an instrument to become a powerful symbol of artistic rebellion. Every component, including its characteristic hockey stick headstock and powerful visual messaging captures Morello's unwavering commitment to musical innovation and social change.
With the release of the 'Arm the Homeless' guitar, Tom Morello and Fender have pledged donations to support organizations fighting homelessness – we believe that music and social responsibility can work in harmony.
