Painted Axe — Custom Painted Guitars for Fundraisers, Raffles & Music Events

Painted Axe crafts commissioned, hand-painted guitars and gear that help organizations raise money and make events unforgettable — from festival fundraisers to silent auctions and branded promotions.

Painted Axe creates custom, hand-painted guitars and instruments designed for fundraisers, raffles, silent auctions, and music events. Each piece is commissioned as a one-of-a-kind artwork — built to attract attention, spark bidding, and raise meaningful funds for organizations, festivals, and artists.

Unlike typical auction items, a Painted Axe hand-painted guitar is both functional and collectible. These instruments consistently perform well in raffles and silent auctions because they combine visual impact, musical relevance, and real perceived value — especially in music-driven environments.

Painted Axe guitars are a natural fit for fundraisers, festivals, concerts, release parties, and music events, where guitars already carry emotional and cultural weight. Whether displayed, raffled, auctioned, or signed, they draw crowds and create a focal point that feels authentic to the audience.

For brands, sponsors, and partners, Painted Axe also produces branded guitars and promotional pieces that integrate logos, themes, or campaign elements — without sacrificing artistic quality. The result is a branded object people actually want to engage with, photograph, and talk about.

Projects range from electric, acoustic, and bass guitars to painted guitar cases and drum heads. Each piece is created in close collaboration, ensuring the artwork aligns with the event, cause, or story it represents.

Founded by artist Michael Gauf, Painted Axe has produced commissioned guitars for bands, festivals, nonprofits, and events across the music world. Every piece reflects decades of artistic experience and an understanding of how these instruments function in real-world fundraising and event settings.

If you’re planning a fundraiser, raffle, or music event and want a custom guitar that stands out and delivers results, Painted Axe can help bring it to life. Commissioned projects are available for events of all sizes.
