Additionally, via a partnership with Musicians on Call, Dave Matthews’ guitar featuring his hand-drawn artwork is offered to help fund an ongoing partnership with Raven Drum to bring live music to bedsides in countrywide hospitals.

“I recently had the chance to attend a Raven Drum Foundation event and was really impacted by the healing effect the drum circle and joining together in a shared rhythm with a community of people had on me,” Sixx said in a press statement. “I’m happy to support Raven Drum’s mission by donating one of my signature bass guitars, along with a few other items, including a scarf worn on stage with Mötley Crüe, some signed books, and my custom picks.”

Over the past three years, the annual 12 Drummers Drumming auction has raised more $120,000 through various events and efforts.

With new items added regularly, the auction will be live until Nov. 11 at 12 p.m. PST. To bid, visit the website here.
