Thayer recently donated his royalties from the sale of the "Tommy Thayer Signature Duotone Head" from Hughes & Kettner to Children's Hospital Los Angeles.

"Caring for children and their medical needs is so important to me. Children's Hospital Los Angeles is dedicated to providing the highest quality pediatric care anywhere in the world and they make it happen every day," said Tommy in a statement.
