IF you are bored with playing air guitar, stroll along to the O2 where you can pick up a piece of rock 'n roll history.

Feast your eyes on the great musical instruments up for grabs in a fantastic online auction.

All you need to be the proud owner of a 10ft Gibson Les Paul Guitar is bid for it at a special charity auction later this month.

You are invited to bid for one the 60 rock'n'roll masterpieces online on Ebay.

Between June and September this year 30, ten-foot high hand-painted, free standing replica Gibson Les Paul guitars were on display outside at More London on London's South Bank by City Hall.

An additional 30 hand painted and signed regular sized Gibson SG guitars were also displayed around The O2 in Greenwich.

All the ten-foot Gibson Les Paul guitars have all been personally signed by musicians such as Sir Paul McCartney, Brian May, Robert Plant, Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, Rod Stewart, Ozzy Osbourne, KT Tunstall, New Order, Dirty Pretty Things, Hard-Fi, Kasabian, Magic Numbers, James Blunt, Katie Melua, Mark Knopfler, Roxy Music and The Stereophonics plus others.

Visual artists including Sir Peter Blake and the caricaturist Gerald Scarfe collaborated with many of Britain's best known and respected musicians exclusively for the Gibson Guitartown London charity campaign. The Gibson Guitartown London charity aims to bring the power of music together with art to raise money for The Prince's Trust, Nordoff-Robbins Music Therapy and Teenage Cancer Trust.
