I haven't seen this yet posted in PLEBA, so I thought that I would share it with all of you:
From the latest issue of NME ( 5 Jan. 2007):
Bono designs guitar for children's charity and you
-------------------------------------------------------
could snap it up if you're rich enough
------------------------------------------
A guitar designed by Bono is to be auctioned off in aid of a children's charity.
The U2 singer provides a centrepiece for the new Born to Rock exhibition at Harrods in London, which celebrates the history and
influence of the electric guitar.
A host of big names have customised guitars for the project, and
Bono's features images from his children's book "Peter and the Wolf,"
published in aid of the Irish Children's Hospice.
The guitar will be auctioned in aid of the charity.
The centrepiece of a season called Harrods Rocks, the Born to Rock
Exhibition features rare models including the first known electric
guitar known as the "Frying Pan," as well as models plated by legends
like Jimi Hendrix and Muddy Waters, and newer bands like Oasis and
Kasabian.
Other names customising guitars include Graham Coxon and Bryan Adams.

I can't wait until we get a bit more info about this exhibit - and maybe a few pics from it.
