    Here is a little history on it:
    “The guitar was signed at the Bristol Academy at the Oxfam Tsunami Relief gig, on 19 and 20 February. As well as raising more than £100,000 for Oxfam’s lifesaving relief operation, this concert marked the first occasion on which renowned Bristol bands Massive Attack and Portishead had ever shared a stage. The guitar was also played by several artists at the concert.”

    Who signed it:

    Robert Plant: the legendary Led Zeppelin frontman

    Damon Albarn: lead singer of Blur and the Gorillaz

    Massive Attack: including singers Daddy G and Robert del Naja

    The Coral: Liverpool chart heroes

    Portishead: Bristol trip-hop legends
