  1. I read somewhere where bondo was added to help beef up the structure.
  2. ............If he didn't use it as his #1 guitar? Or if some plain Joe had a guitar like it,had friends to sign it,had a huge hole,and been bondoed together? Willie's "Trigger" is worth millions just because he plays it.Same as Paul McCartney's "Beatle" bass.I read an article where Willie bought his beloved guitar for $750. Now Martin is selling the same model classical for a mere $5500. They discontinued the model years ago,but because of Willie,they decided to resurect it.There sure is something special about guitar players and their instruments! I don't we will ever know the answer,I think he'll buried with it. What do you all think?
  3. I bought a Conn acoustic back in 1983 or 84,but it was a great little guitar. It held up great for me,I wanted a Martin,but I made a litle more then minimum wage back then. It was a full size guitar and it held medium gauage strings on there. It fell over once,busted the neck in half,had it fixed by a luither,it played even better. The tuners were crap,and was worthless. I wish I knew then what I know now,Iwould've put top notch tuners and a bone saddle. It was a great guitar for $160.00. I wish I still had it for sentimental reasons,it was loud too. Enjoy,and take good care of it.
  4. Phil Keaggy is an awesome acoustic player. When playing live,he actually changes alternate tunings while playing,amazing.
