Thirty 10-foot free standing fiberglass Gibson Les Paul guitars and 30 regular sized Gibson SG’s have been creatively designed and hand painted by Sir Peter Blake, Gerald Scarfe, Andrew Logan & competition winners. Each guitar has been signed by the associated musician(s) to authenticate and endorse their own individual guitar.
Musican endorsees include: Paul Weller, Slash, Ronnie Wood, Rod Stewart, Noel Gallagher, Mark Knopfler, Roxy Music, New Order, Bruce Dickinson, Brian May, Gary Moore, Gorillaz, Dirty Pretty Things, The Lost Prophets, James Dean Bradfield, Ocean Colour Scene, Graham Coxon, The Kooks, The Magic Numbers, Ozzy Osbourne, Paul Rodgers, Suggs, KT Tunstall, Razorlight, Hard-Fi, Corinne Bailey Rae, Depeche Mode, James Morrision, Motorhead, Sir Cliff Richard and James Blunt.
The thirty 10 foot Gibson Les Paul guitars are being publicly displayed around More London (by Tower Bridge, SE1) from late June 2007 for ten weeks. Meanwhile, the regular sized hand painted Gibson SG’s will be on public display at The O2 in Greenwich, only a short tube or boat ride from the More London display. Following the exhibition all the guitars will be auctioned off at an event in September with all the proceeds being split equally between the three associated charities: The Prince’s Trust, Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy, and Teenage Cancer Trust.
