A host of hand-painted guitars signed by celebrities including Noel Gallagher, Kasabian, Ronnie Wood and Robert Plant are to be put up for auction.

The 62 Gibson SG guitars have been signed by the artists and uniquely designed and hand-painted by artists as one offs.

They’re set to be auctioned off at the Gibson Guitartown London Charity Auction, to be held at the IndigO2 on November 20.

The Rolling Stones' Ronnie Wood has hand-painted an SG with his pastel rendition of the Royal Albert Hall, while Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters’ guitar features an exclusive design by ‘The Wall’ cover art designer Gerald Scarfe.

All money raised from the auction will be split between Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy, The Prince’s Trust and the Teenage Cancer Trust.
