Kara Shred,Phil X: Bon Jovi guitarist pays tribute to Kara Shred, who died suddenly on Sept 19, 2013

Phil X and the late Kara Shred
Bon Jovi guitarist Phil X played his solo at the Air Canada Centre Saturday night, he made a dozen people cry. That’s because the 12 were the only ones to understand the significance of the guitar in his hands.

The semi-hollow electric guitar, with three star-shaped ports, was custom-designed by Mississauga resident Kara Shred, who died suddenly Sept 19.

Kristi Vilmansen-Shred, mother of the 25-year-old’s graphic designer and hobby musician, found her daughter’s body when she went to wake her for work.

“We were told it was probably a congenital heart problem we didn’t know about,” Vilmansen-Shred says. “It’s been staggering.”

RIP
