Courtesy of Dunlop Manufacturing, legendary guitarist Slash officially opened our Epsom store on Thursday September 15 2011. Slash: The Ribbon was an exclusive invitation-only event, with extremely limited places.
There are few influences who define rock ‘n’ roll, the idols that were pinned to the bedroom walls of a generation. Of these great artists, one stands out from the crowd, a true icon, an inspiration that every young guitarist dreamed they could one day meet. Finally, that dream became a reality. Slash, one of the greatest guitarists of all time headed to the UK to personally open the finest guitar haven in the south – guitarguitar.
Slash, the Guns ‘n’ Roses/Velvet Revolver axe man, renowned for his low slung aviator style and legendary licks, flew into the UK to be at guitarguitar’s Epsom store for autograph signing and most importantly to ‘slash the sash’ and open the largest guitar emporium in the UK!
This event was strictly invite only where guitarguitar offered a handful of lucky winners the chance to bag a wristband, allowing them access to meet the man himself.
Sponsored by the legendary Jim Dunlop, makers of Slash’s signature Cry Baby wah – Slash: The Ribbon was a momentous event for any guitar fan.
