Watch the Guitar Gallery, a giant column shaped sculpture made out of guitars, acoustic and electric and a few other musical instruments, at EMP Museum in Seattle. Although you can see a few drums and banjos, an accordion, a keyboard, and a viola or a large violin inside the sculpture, this exhibit and collection is dedicated to guitar history. Some of the guitars are played by electrically controlled mechanical devices which are clearly visible in this video as they do their work. The size of this guitar column or pillar is truly amazing. it’s a giant structured and functioning guitar pile that gets wider and wider from the bottom to the top.
How and when did this museum get started? The co-founder of Microsoft Paul Allen founded the EMP Museum in 2000. It’s located near the Seattle Space Needle and it’s well worth a visit or two or many more. There’s a lot to see there besides what is shown in this video.
Enjoy.
