BLACK SABBATH Guitarist's Limited-Edition GIBSON To Go On Display In Dublin - Nov. 22, 2006

BLACK SABBATH guitarist Tony Iommi has lent one of his guitars to the National Museum of Ireland in Dublin for a new exhibition called "RockChic: The Life and Times of the Electric Guitar 1931-2006". The exhibition will feature more than 100 legendary, vintage, rare and customized guitars, including instruments played by Jimi Hendrix, Phil Lynott, Rory Gallagher, Keith Richards, Bo Diddley, Carlos Santana and Van Morrison. Also featured will be new customized guitars from the likes of Patrick Cox, Christopher Bailey, David LaChapelle, Diane von Furstenburg and legendary Irish broadcaster Dave Fanning. These guitars will form part of a charity auction once the exhibition is complete. The guitar on loan from Tony is one of his black limited-edition Gibson Custom Shop SGs, as played on BLACK SABBATH tours and recordings since 2001. "RockChic" runs at the National Museum of Ireland, Collins Barracks, Dublin from November 23, 2006 to January 21, 2007. Admission is free. For opening hours and general information visit www.museum.ie. The exhibition is due to move to London from the end of January; more information on this when details are confirmed.
