Golden Guitar, Musical monument in Tamworth, Australia.

The Golden Guitar is a 12-metre-tall sculpture of an acoustic guitar on Sydney Road in Tamworth, built from fibreglass and wood with steel reinforcements and weighing over 500 kilograms. It has a cutaway body with two f-holes, a fretted neck and six tuning pegs, and no strings, since it copies the trophies given at the Country Music Awards of Australia. A dark base below it reads "#Tamworth".

The monument was built in 1988 and unveiled by Australian country singer Slim Dusty as a tribute to the Golden Guitar Award. It marked a turning point in Tamworth's recognition as the central city of Australia's country music scene.

The monument represents Tamworth's identity as the country music capital of Australia and draws music enthusiasts from across the nation. Visitors stop here to connect with the local music tradition and capture memories at this landmark.

The monument is freely accessible around the clock and located at an easy-to-reach spot on the city's edge. The nighttime lighting makes it a good target for photographers, particularly during evening hours.

The sculpture has no strings: it was modelled directly on the miniature Golden Guitar trophies handed to winners at the Country Music Awards of Australia during the Tamworth Country Music Festival. Its body is fibreglass and wood over steel reinforcements, and it weighs over 500 kilograms.
