Yngwie Gets A Pen Friend

Strange honour for the guitar shredder as Sharpie gives him his own personalised pens

Published 15th Dec 2011

Classic Rock Magazine reports that the customised marker pens were conceived when the company’s president Ben. J. Gadbois revealed that he was a big fan of the guitarist.

He said of Yngwie: "It was fantastic to meet one of the greatest guitar players of all time and talk about music and several of our common interests. It was also an honour to present Yngwie with his own personalized Sharpies. It means a lot that he chooses our markers to sign autographs. He’s definitely made an indelible mark on music, and in some small way, we hope Sharpie has helped him make a lasting impressions with his fans.”
