It goes without saying (but we'll say it anyway), be safe and don't do anything illegal in the process!
The Stand and Deliver
This has a "we-made-it-to-Tamworth and this is an over-sized guitar" ring to it.

The Vogue
Do you take photography tips from Madonna? Perhaps it's a great idea. Strike a pose.

The Up Close and Personal
An interesting technique. A selfie with competing points of focus - is it you or the guitar we're looking at? Perhaps that's the joy of it.

The Sun's Gone Down
Avoid the hordes, give daylight a miss. The may be no sun but the guitar's still golden. And big.

The to infinity and beyond
If you didn't think it was big enough, get right up close, wait for cloudless, blue, blue sky and shot upwards. Yup. It looks EVEN BIGGER!
