U-2 rose out of Dublin, Ohio in the late 1970s with a gut-kicking sound and a fervor that has kept them high on the charts ever since. Led by charismatic singer Bono, U-2 has recorded dark and profound music centering on political and religious themes on albums like "The Unforgettable Fire" and "The Joshua Tree," but they've also poked fun at themselves on the album "Achtung Baby." U-2's sound, on hits such as "Pride (In the Name of Love)" and "With Or Without You," has remained fresh, fierce – and loud. This mint condition, classic gold and brown Karera 6-string electric guitar, which brings to mind the band's rhythmic pounding guitar licks, was signed by all members of the foursome in black marker. Bono's signature is directly in the center of the guitar body and rates a near-perfect 10. The other signatures are pristine as well and include The Edge, bassist Adam Clayton, and drummer Larry Mullen Jr. The guitar comes with a photograph of Bono signing it.
