The biggest guitar - level 2

The biggest guitar - level 2



The world’s largest guitar is on display at a guitar museum in New Jersey, USA. It is 43 feet long (13 meters) and 16 feet wide (almost 5 meters). It weighs a massive 2,255 pounds which is over a thousand kilos.


The cool thing about this guitar is not just the size, though. People can actually play the guitar. It was built in Texas about ten years ago as a project to teach engineering and physics. It took almost a year to build it.


The huge guitar is not the only interesting one at the museum. There is a guitar which is partly made of a mammoth’s tusk.


Difficult words: engineering (the branch of science about design and building), huge (very big), tusk (a long pointed tooth of an animal).
