Music lovers, this one’s for you.
The Buffalo Museum of Science’s newest exhibit opening on February 13 is all about celebrating the world’s most popular instrument.
The exhibit is called Medieval To Metal: The Art & Evolution of the GUITAR and it was developed by The National GUITAR Museum in New York, NY.
This exhibit takes visitors through the history of one of the most recognizable items on the planet.

You’ll see 40 instruments ranging from rare and antique to wildly popular and innovative. A few highlights include the intricately inlaid Moorish oud and six-foot-long Renaissance theorbo as well as the modern Italian design of the Eko and transparent acrylic body of California’s BC Rich guitars.
The exhibit also includes life-size photorealistic illustrations of historically important guitar designs from noted artist Gerard Huerta, and 20 photographs of acclaimed musicians and their guitars from Neil Zlozower, one of the world’s premier concert photographers.
