Taylor Swift Unveils Stunning Guitar Collection in Exclusive ‘The Eras Tour Book’
Get ready, Swifties! Taylor Swift’s much-anticipated “The Eras Tour Book” will hit stores on Black Friday, and it promises to be a treasure trove for fans. Among the 500+ images within its pages are exclusive close-ups of Swift’s stunning concert guitars, a vital part of her on-stage persona that rivals her extravagant wardrobe. This head-turning showcase reveals all eight of her custom guitars used during the 2023 tour, which has captivated fans since it kicked off in March.
For a sneak peek, Variety has provided exclusive images that highlight these incredible instruments, including the enchanting bejeweled guitar that has become emblematic of her style. This particular guitar, bedecked with thousands of crystals and featuring a special “13” logo, was custom-created by Swift and her family, making it a personal piece of her artistry.
In the book, Swift reflects on her performances, saying, “frolicking across stages with my crystal-covered guitar, fringe dress, and boots alongside my band” has been a highlight of the experience. She also takes a moment to honor her talented musicians, who contribute both live and in the studio for her re-recorded albums.
What’s more, the book includes tantalizing details like a close-up of a pink guitar’s pick holder, showcasing “Lover” picks that fans can often snag at her shows.
Mark your calendars because along with the book, fans can also grab CD and vinyl editions of Swift’s newly released deluxe album, “The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology.” While in-store sales will kick off on Friday at Target, these highly sought-after items will soon be available online the following day.
The 256-page volume features a rich tapestry of images from every segment of her extended three-hour shows and rehearsals, giving fans an intimate glimpse behind the scenes with set pieces, costumes, and personal notes from Swift herself. Priced at $39.99, it’s worth every penny for die-hard fans.
Notably, while her wardrobe has received much attention during the tour, her collection of guitars has not gone unnoticed. Guitar enthusiasts and fans alike have dissected the significance of these instruments. Some were newly introduced during the tour, while others have deep-rooted histories in her career.
Among her prized guitars is a Gibson J-180, which she had lovingly adorned with crystals, paying homage to a similar rhinestone guitar she showcased during her “Fearless” tour. Another standout is the “koi” guitar, featuring intricate fish designs, first revealed during her “Speak Now” tour and later seen in the “Anti-Hero” music video.
The collection also boasts a custom-built Grand Auditorium acoustic guitar, which has been part of her setup since as early as 2007, making it a nostalgic piece for long-time fans.
As “The Eras Tour Book” prepares to make its debut, excitement builds not just for the stunning visuals, but also for four new acoustic tracks that will serve as bonus additions to the already stellar 31-song lineup of “The Tortured Poets Department.”
This is just the beginning! With Swift's ongoing creativity and connection with her fans, who knows what other surprises are in store! Don’t miss out on this cultural phenomenon and be sure to grab your copy on Black Friday!
