Country superstar TAYLOR SWIFT is to be the subject of a new exhibit at a musical instruments museum in Arizona.

A treasure trove of the singer's personal items, including instruments, handwritten song lyrics, and stage costumes is to go on display at the Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix.

The Love Story hitmaker has also handed over the cowboy boots and acoustic guitar featured in her the music video for her first hit Tim McGraw.

The attraction will be divided into two parts, with one section being devoted to Swift's humble beginnings and the other documenting her career after shooting to fame.

The museum's president and director, Dr. Bill DeWalt, says, "We hope this exhibit inspires our guests of all ages to play an instrument and make their own music."
