Golden Guitar, Musical monument in Tamworth, Australia.
The Golden Guitar rises 12 meters high at the southern entrance of Tamworth, featuring a metallic structure shaped like a musical instrument.
The monument was constructed in 1988 and unveiled by Australian country music singer Slim Dusty as a representation of the Golden Guitar Award.
The structure stands as a physical representation of Tamworth's position as the central hub of country music in Australia.
Visitors can access the Golden Guitar freely at any time, with nighttime illumination providing opportunities for photographs against the New South Wales sky.
The monument weighs half a tonne and includes detailed craftsmanship that mirrors the exact proportions of an actual guitar at a much larger scale.
