Hard Rock Bristol lit the iconic Hard Rock guitar Friday morning to gear up for their grand opening on November 14.
The lighting ceremony began at 7:30 this morning.
The guitar was modeled after a 1927 Resonator which was released the same year as the Bristol Sessions began.
It took over 2,000 hours to complete and stands 45 feet tall.
Officials with the casino say they plan to showcase memorabilia from Bristol within the hotel to celebrate country music.
Blake Shelton will perform at the casino on November 14 for the grand opening followed by Bush on that Saturday the 16.
Tickets for those concerts are on sale now.
