On January 22 in 1988, the Big Golden Guitar was officially opened by Australia’s King of Country Music, Slim Dusty.
Today on its 30th birthday, many tourists made a pit stop to take a quick snap..
The idea to build a big guitar was brought about by former Mayor Warrick Bennet and festival founder Max Ellis…
The 12-metre high fibreglass structure was made by Tamworth local Len Surtees and modelled on the famous Golden Guitar awards.
