Back in February, SoundControl in Bristol donated a top quality 'Avalon' guitar worth around £1,500. Now after being signed by artists such as Robert Plant, Oxfam is auctioning it for charity.



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
