With Lamb of God frontman Randy Blythe still behind bars in the Czech Republic, his bandmates responded to the outpouring of support from LoG fans and the metal community at large by starting up a legal fund for their imprisoned lead singer.

Guitarist and philanthropist Mark Morton has donated a custom-designed and autographed Jackson guitar from his personal collection, along with the strings and Lamb of God guitar picks he used to record four of the songs from the band’s album Wrath, to the Myotonic Dystrophy Foundation to be auctioned off.
Next week at NAMM, DiMarzio will officially launch the Mark Morton "Dominion" signature model pickup, which will be available in both bridge and neck models.
