| John Paul Jones to appear at Mansons Guitar Show Mansons Guitar Show is proud to announce the legendary bass player John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin/Them Crooked Vultures) will be appearing at this years show taking place Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th October. The 2010 Mansons Guitar Show is set to be both the biggest and best show yet with a record number of exhibitors confirmed including virtually every great guitar company on the planet. Manufacturers will be bringing their best model examples to exhibit at the prestigious weekend with several UK exclusive launches confirmed. A great mixture of the small independent guitar companies are rubbing shoulders with large corporates, and the presence of guitar legends such as John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin means Manson's Guitar Show is undoubtedly the UK's premier guitar lovers' event. A full list of exhibitors and artists is attached separately. We are also proud to announce that Mansons Guitar Show is set to be one of the most unique in terms of prize-winning opportunities and has grown even greater this year.

Acoustic players are equally well looked after with Faith and Freshman Guitars offering mouth watering prizes.
