A rare guitar owned by Jimi Hendrix for three years is one of a number of items set to go on auction as part of Bonham's annual entertainment sale on Thursday.

The Epiphone acoustic guitar, which Hendrix purchased second-hand for $25 in New York City, is expected to sell between £80,000-120,000.

Other items on auction include a custom-made cloud guitar used on tour by Prince in 1993, expected to sell for £25,000-30,000, a flamboyant jacket worn on stage by Rolling Stone Keith Richard in 1967, rare Beatles self-portrait caricatures signed by the band and a Bosendorfer piano played by Queen's Freddie Mercury at Wessex studios.
