The World Famous Artist Shannon has finished painting the Dantzig Racing helmet for 2002! Shannon has previously colaborated with Jol Dantzig on several projects for the bands Cheap Trick and Do Doubt.

Based loosely on Smashing Pumpkins lyrics, the helmet features the German flag colors and a glimpse inside the brain within the helmet. A simulated hole in the helmet reveals the rat-in-a-cage inside the wearer's head!

Shannon stopped by to drop off the helmet recently, and tour the Hamer Guitar workshop.

Shannon was very excited to have been involved in the helmet project, and the amazing detail shows it. Shannon has collaborated with Jol Dantzig and Hamer on several projects in the past, including a series of guitars for No Doubt guitarist Tom Dumont and Cheap Trick's guitarist Rick Nielsen.
