Mr Brown has now set up a social media profile called Blind Guitar Guy, and has 1,000 followers on TikTok.
He said he hoped to expand his following to help him raise money for the Leicester-based Vista charity, which helps people with sight loss.
“Vista helped me so much when I was registered blind, ” Mr Brown said.
“When I lost my licence, they helped me get a disabled bus pass, they helped me adapt my home. They made a real difference at a hard time in my life.
“I want to try to give them something back. I have set up a fundraising page for them.
“I’ve started small, but if I get £100 for them, I’ll get Vista’s logo tattooed on my bicep and put the video of it online for everyone’s entertainment.”
Mr Brown said he now hoped to work with the charity to help other blind and partially-sighted people learn the guitar.
Vista has been contacted for comment.
