JOE BONAMASSA NFT COLLECTION FEATURING NEW SONG MASTER & PUBLISHING, RARE GUITAR, AMP & MORE

"That is what this NFT concept gives artists — the opportunity to raise capital on an independent basis that will allow them to overstep the so-called gatekeepers of the music industry. It's the next logical step in how independent artists are going to be on equal footing with major labels." - Joe's business partner, Roy Weisman

With this auction, Bonamassa stands to reshape the music industry forever by tokenizing the master and publishing rights to a brand-new song titled "Broken Record" into an NFT. This auction is truly unprecedented as the chart-topping guitarist is partnering with Heritage Auction House to sell this physical + digital collection, which features his own 'Holy Grail' 1959 Gibson Les Paul Sunburst guitar and 1963 Fender Vibroverb amp that were used to record the never-heard song.

This history-making auction from music-biz revolutionary Joe Bonamassa is far from routine, as nothing Bonamassa does is ordinary. Joe is breaking new ground in the music industry with this lot featuring highly collectible items including not only some of the most prized musical instruments on the planet, but pairing them with a series of certificates of authenticity as cutting-edge non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

Bonamassa calls this lot "the one-song record company" because it revolutionizes the way musicians can make a business from their intellectual property. That means the NFT's new owner will get the instruments used to make it, and they can do anything they want with the song "Broken Record," from being the only person on earth to hear it, or playing it only for a few friends, and even licensing it for commercial use and everything in between.

Non-fungible tokens are changing the business world and Bonamassa's clever use of the new technology is now allowing other artists to build what is their own business. Bonamassa's auction is unique and stands to reshape how musicians make and sell their art. This incredible lot includes 13 items individually tokenized on the Ethereum blockchain. Each physical item will have a digital NFT component. This lot is a dream come true for any serious collector of vintage gear or NFT investor looking to diversify their portfolio.
