Guitars of Super Bowl LVII

by Steven Garrity

As far as I noticed, there were two guitars featured during Super Bowl El Vee Eye Eye.

During the half-time show, Nuno Bettencourt was supporting Rihanna with a theme-appropriate bright red edition of his signature Washburn, presumably the N4 model.

Before the game, Chris Stapleton performed the US National Anthem with what looks like a Fender Telecaster Custom.

Update: I missed Babyface playing America the Beautiful on an American-Flag Taylor acoustic. Interesting arrangement here, as it’s strung for right handed players, but he’s playing “upside-down” left-handed. Thanks to pmac for letting me know.

Tune in again next year for episode 2 of Guitars of the Super Bowl.
