Curators of a great guitar

For those who might have occasion to travel to or within Japan and specifically to the Southern city of Kyoto, they've got a brand-new attraction which might prompt a pilgrimage for some of us Rabinites.

This month the newest location of the iconic Hard Rock Cafe franchise debuted in Kyoto, and in keeping with the city's traditional Imperial-era architecture, the restaurant blends in with the neighborhood so you might miss it if you're not looking.

The Hard Rock is so-named for the collection of rock n'roll memorabilia displayed at each location and Kyoto features of one of Trevor's guitars in their collection which appears to have been signed by Trevor and Jon and maybe Rick?  The guitar in question is a Washburn Parallaxe, but not with the same color/finish as Trevor's signature model.

Here are a couple articles on the opening:
