(Gibson) At 2 p.m. on Tuesday, November 16, comedy icons Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong will visit the Roxy Theatre on Hollywood's Sunset Boulevard to sign the 10-foot Gibson guitar replica that commemorates their nearly 40-year-long career as film stars and live comedians.

One of 26 guitars included in Gibson GuitarTown's Sunset Strip public art exhibition, the Cheech & Chong guitar was painted by artist Margaret Garcia. Each side of the guitar features a colorful portrait of one member of the comedy duo. Other pieces in the GuitarTown exhibit � on display all along the Sunset Strip � celebrate Slash, The Doors, and other musicians and contributors to the Los Angeles music scene.

The GuitarTown Sunset Strip guitars will remain on display for six months, after which they will be sold at auction to benefit charity. Gibson previously has created GuitarTowns out of Austin, Nashville, Orlando, Miami and London. - more on this story
