450 guitarists gather at Sydney festival to break World Record for Largest Electric Guitar Ensemble

More than 450 guitarists gathered at a festival in Sydney this past weekend to break a Guinness World Record for "Largest Electric Guitar Ensemble” by playing AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell” in unison.

According to Reverb, the record is currently held by 368 Indian guitarists who played "Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door" together (in the style of Guns N' Roses’ hit version) in 2013.

In total, 457 would-be record breakers gathered at the Sydney Guitar Festival to play the AC/DC classic. You can see a video of their attempt below.
