Montgomery spoke with Channel 2 news about the attack. "I had just sat down to play my guitar near the ocean when I heard screams from down the road," he explained, nonchalantly. "He jumped on the bench yelling at me and trying to stab me so I grabbed my guitar and hit him over the head with it.
"He was so stunned and didn't know what to do with himself and then started running away."
Two police volunteers then shot and killed the terrorist.
Ed Dvir, from Philadelphia, read about Montgomery's quick reaction to an approaching terrorist and set up a GoFundMe account, explaining: "I Ed Dvir of Philadelphia will speak to Yishay to find out which guitars he wants and will purchase them on his behalf in America and will deliver them to him when I go to Israel."
In less than 24 hours, 213 people from around the world have contributed to the campaign. Some added short notes including "GUITAR HEROOOO!!!!!" and "Thank you for being awesome!"
Dvir also claims to have received an offer from "a rock star in NJ" to provide an autographed guitar, and is trying to get the rock band Tool to donate. Montgomery is a fan of Tool and was wearing their shirt at the time of the attack.

If I had hit someone over the head with my old Warmouth-parts custom made mahogany body strat it would have killed them.
Bruce Springsteen? Jon Bon Jovi?
Anything that expensive, they had damned well better die.
I loved that guitar. Mahogany body, birds-eye maple neck, 3 EMG active pickups with a humbucker that split between single and double coil at the floyd rose tremolo bridge.
She ain’t mine any more but it was a great relationship while it lasted.
Killing me softly with his song...
