A family from Chessington is hoping to make £50,000 when they put a guitar up for auction in September.

But it’s not just any guitar, it was once owned by Led Zeppelin’s Jimmy Page.

The 1957 Gretsch Chet Atkins 6120 electric guitar was given away by the star as a prize in a competition run by NME magazine.

Phil O’Donoghue from Chessington is putting it up for auction with a photo of Page giving it away to the winner of the competition, Charles Reid.

Reid had kept the guitar until September 1990 when he sold it to Mr O’Donoghue for £2,000.

It is expected to fetch between £30,000 and £50,000 when auctioned at Gardiner Houlgate in Wiltshire.
