Answer: B - The band played songs for the crowd with guitars.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this sentence, the phrase "with guitars" is a misplaced modifier because it seems to modify the crowd instead of the band. A clearer and more accurate placement of the modifier would be: "The band played songs with guitars for the crowd."
