The Frying Pan

Hailed as the biggest guitar exhibition in Europe (featuring over 150 guitars), the vast collection will include "The Frying Pan" - the world's first electric guitar (circa 1931).

The centre piece and inspiration for this event is the "RockCouture™" collection: over 50 stunning and unique electric guitars, personally customised by the biggest names in fashion, music and design, including Bono, Nick Rhodes, Patrick Cox, Sir Peter Blake, Lord Richard Rogers, David LaChapelle, Jennifer Lopez, Graham Coxon, Diane Von Furstenberg, Theo Fennell and many more.

Following the exhibition the RockCouture guitars will be auctioned for charities nominated by participating creators.

Also on show will be many rare and extremely valuable guitars, both vintage and modern, and offers visitors a chance to get up close to guitars normally only seen in hands of rock stars. "Born To Rock™" gathers into one place priceless guitars played by the likes of Brian Jones, Keith Richards, Noel Gallagher, The Edge, The Velvet Underground, John Lee Hooker, Ted Nugent, Marc Bolan, Neil Young, Eddie Cochrane, and blues legend Rory Gallagher.
