London 2012 Closing Ceremony

Closing ceremony gear

As used by Muse, Take That, The Who, Ed Sheeran, Beady Eye and more

The games' organisers were keen not to show any branding that wasn't from official sponsors, which extended to covering logos on amps and instruments ? so we've prepared a cheat sheet to tell you exactly what gear the closing ceremony's artists were using.  See the full version on our site, or the taster below.
