It’s not every day fans get to actually take part in one of the hottest tickets in country music. This summer, one lucky person will have the opportunity to do just that as CMT and Taylor Guitars are launching a contest to design the official guitar for the Farmers Insurance Presents “The American Band Tour.” The guitar will be played by band members’ onstage in cities across America, and the winner will get a VIP experience to see Rascal Flatts live and receive his/her own band autographed, custom-designed Taylor Guitar GS8 model. Fans will have additional opportunities to win autographed GS Mini guitars at select concert dates, on CMT RADIO LIVE WITH CODY ALAN and on CMT.com, provided by Taylor Guitars. CMT and Taylor Guitars will give away 15 guitars throughout the entire summer-long promotion.
Fans can submit guitar designs using approved images and logos now through Monday, April 30. More information is available at www.rascalflatts.cmt.com.
