It's the kind of guitar you write an Oscar winning song on.
“I don’t think it has long left” 9 years later he’s still playing it

He's actually been playing a different guitar mostly that I've been trying to identify & hear the story, hence finding this video. All I know is its not a Takamine & it has a pickguard. Its had some serious play as well, with a hole worn in it.

@@dabackdaboot9504 went to one of his shows recently, he said that someone dropped the guitar while moving in and cracked the top in two. I’m not sure which guitar he’s using now, could be the one that he was given by Takamine though.
Thanks! I've always wondered about the story behind the guitar- and it's a great one.

You want mediocre pre-processed, formulaic, fast food equivalent music.. turn on your tv or radio. You want a beautiful work of art that invokes feelings you don't have words for.. turn to the guy on the street corner with a beat up guitar.
