Man had his priorities in order.
A lifetime ago after first hearing Willie I sent a letter to Him sharing my love for his Music. About 2 weeks later I received a box delivered by UPS to my home. In that box included several T - shirts , a 9x12 photo of Willie and that infamous Red Bandana, thank you Willie for making my life a better place.

I played this guitar once. As a college student at West Texas State in Canyon in about 1975 or 76, my buddies and I were helping set up for a Willie Nelson concert. The roadie was handing me instruments to unpack and set on stage. When I pulled this guitar out of the case, I immediately recognized it and asked if it would be ok to play a little bit since I played guitar. He said “NO!” But as I was about to put it in the stand, I managed a C, D, and G before he could stop me! Funny story but my only real claim to fame.

You sir have touched greatness!👍 Well done. I was friends with Dick Dale many years ago. My wife and I (and sons) were visiting him at his Sky Ranch in 29 Palms when he brings out his 1961 Strat that Leo Fender gave him. I got my Strat out of my car . We exchanged guitars and sat on his living room sofa and played for about an hour. He signed my guitar. I still have it. Dick is gone now and his gear is all tied up in estate legal battles. That 61 Strat should go in the Musicians Hall of Fame in Nashville.

While working in Austin TX, I had the pleasure of serving this lovely man. After he and his boys finished their meals, he invited my boss, coworker and myself(we were the only ones there at the time) to go smoke with him on his bus before his show. I got to meet trigger. Willie is the nicest guy ever!! One of Greatest days of my life.

It will never be a star or get millions of views, but it's a story that they will be able to share with their children, grandchildren, and beyond. The wood, the metal, the plastic, and the strings are imbued with our aura and the stories play on long after we're gone.

Willie is the real deal. He's got heart and passion and brains and character. He's lived life on his own terms, and has inspired countless millions across several generations who needed a man like him to come along and welcome them all in regardless of whatever prejudices divided people at the time. He will always be honored and remembered for trailblazing a way forward for everyone lost and in need of a way toward the light.
What a great little documentary - and profile of America at it's best. A must see for guitar aficionados. The Willie Nelson story is inspiring. He created music that has entertained and influenced generations. And he did it playing a Martin guitar. This story & Willie's journey is as much about "Trigger" - as he called his guitar - as it is Willie. Trigger was made at the Martin Guitar factory in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. It's been making guitars there since 1833. It made Willie's Martin N-20, his "Trigger." And it's still making guitars. Americans making musical instruments and Americans making music: America at its' best. As a music lover and an aspiring guitarist I've been singing along to "Whiskey River" since I was a teenager. As an old man now I love to strum my Martin guitar along with Willie and Trigger.

Willie is the kind of guy you'd love to just sit down and chat with over a couple of beers. I can only imagine the stories he would be able to tell.
People don't give Willie near enough credit for his approach to guitar. Who else in country is inspired by Django Reinhart and plays in that style, let alone with a nylon-string guitar? I'm also glad Willie eventually rebelled against the clean-shaven homogenized country image that was so inherent with Nashville artists during his time. Shotgun Willie is one of the best examples of music ever recorded, period.

Willies sound is totally iconic, the sound of trigger is totally unique, the nylon strings and buzz of the worn down frets the pickup on the guitar, the second sound hole. Willies voice like his guitar carries all his experiences.
I saw Willie and Trigger I Fayetville Arkansas 1982. Best performance I have ever seen! Thank you Willie! I still love your tunes and attitude!
Willie is a Icon for all American's regardless of your genre I don't think anyone dislikes his work or sound. We've all sang along at one time. He is truly a great person too. You don't keep going as long as he has without doing something right.
Willie will be playing Trigger 5 minutes from my home this evening. Can’t waiting to see them.
Long live them both..Willy and trusty old Trigger ...Let's have an AMEN EVERYONE!!!!!!..🙏🙏🙏

It’s amazing how at his age, he is still able to play the guitar so well. Usually a lot of these guys develop arthritis and are unable to even form proper chords anymore(Keith Richards, Bob Dylan and etc) but Willie can still play as well as he did when he was younger.

Willie and Trigger are National Treasures.
I met Willie a few times after concerts I attended. Very humble and generous. He signed my guitar..Eventually I got Johnny Cash Waylon Jennings and Kris Kritofferson to sign. A great story for each autograph. lot.
Trigger is and will always be part of Nelson. It's an extension of his body.
I saw him perform Pancho and Lefty live once. It was great moment at the worst time in my life.

My GOD i LOVE this!!! thank you very much....and thank you Trigger.....for all the good times and music.....
WoW~ I knew trigger was his guitar but this video made me aware of something. Ive aleays treasured the accomplishment of learning my 1st solo on guitar. It just happened naturally back in 1981. NOW I REALIZE THAT TRIGGER GAVE ME THAT 1ST MIGHTY SPARK OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO GET GOOD ON GUITAR. JUST A BEGINNER, A FEW MONTHS INTO PLAYING A GUITAR THAT MY DAD MARSHALL HAD GIVEN ME AT 10 YRS OLD, I DIDNT PLAY MUCH BUT AT THE AGE OF 13, I HEARD THAT GUITAR SOLO ON THE 45RPM OF "YOU WERE ALWAYS ON MY MIND". I HAD 3 STRINGS ON THE GUITAR, CAUSE MY BIG BROTHER JEFF HAD BROKE A FEW PLAYING AIR GUITAR TO LYNARD SKYNYRD, BUT THE 6TH 5TH and 3rd/G string was on there, but i learned THAT SOLO on that one string, note for note. It taught me the major scale pattern. From there, i exoloded. THANK YOU WILLIE & TRIGGER ! YOU ARE THE INSPIRATION THAT HAS HELPED ME TO GET THROUGH THE TOUGHEST TIMES, & LIVED THROUGH GREAT TIMES TOO. ALL BECAUSE THE AWESOME TONE & SOUND OF THAT GUITAR, CAUGHT MY EARS ATTENTION. I'M GOING TO OFFER WILLY 50 DOLLARS CASH FOR IT. HECK ITS ALL BEAT UP🤣😅😂😉😆

Hi Patrick, how are you doing today
I saw one of Willie's last concerts before the pandemic. Before the show started the roadies brought out and set up Trigger on the stage and suddenly there was a crowd of people up front taking pictures. When you have people taking pictures of your guitar before you even hit the stage...I mean that is pretty cool. It was a great show too (January 2020 Redding CA). We'd heard he was frail, etc. but he sure didn't show it...soloed on every song and generally kicked ass. My buddy sprang for front row center tickets...he caught Willie's hat when he threw it into the crowd...and I caught a bandana a few minutes later. Great great show. ;~)

What a long road they have both walked! So many good friends lost along the way,but these two heroes keep going. Ninety next month,is Willie,and probably more popular and recognised than ever before. Long may they both sing and play for the legions of fans and friends they have gathered through the years.
I love this guy. Even though I´m not into country and western. He is a true Legend.
Thank you Willie for all your great songs. You made a lot of great singers famous from the songs you wrote. Thanks again.

Grew up in TEXAS and everyone in the late 70s wore boots and danced on the sandy cornmeal floors to the Western poetry of Willy, Waylon and the Boys, I held and spun so many pretty girls as Willy and Trigger filled our ears with music and rhymes, that let us escape the pressures of life - THANKS Willy and Trigger.
I've had the extreme honor, of knowing Willie Nelson, and by extension, Trigger, for nearly my entire career. Over 40 years. This is an accurate account of this guitar, and man, as far as it goes. I've played and recorded many times with Willie. I've been entrusted with the safety of Trigger, and even played Trigger. It's an astounding guitar. But don't forget the most important thing. An instrument only sounds as good as the person playing it. I've played with Willie playing just about every guitar under the sun. Including a session with Willie playing "All Around The Watchtower" on a custom Robin guitar, and I swear to God he played like Jimi dreamed of playing! Blues legend Derek O'Brian can testify to this, as can Freddie Fletcher and Dahr Jamail. I believe there is a prominent painting of Trigger in the Texas Capital. But the man playing it is the true living legend, Willie Nelson.

This was very informative and enjoyable. I admire Willie greatly for his music, philosophy and forward thinking humanist actions...

I recently watched another video where Mark Erlewine (the luthier that looks after Trigger) was interviewed. He told a nice anecdote. Willie's management was once very concerned that Trigger could falls apart beyond repair one day, so they jumped through all the hoops to dig out another Martin guitar from the exact same year as Trigger and gave it to Mark to modify it in the exact same way as Trigger. So he did and presented it to Willie. He plugged a couple of chords on it, put it aside and never touched it ever since

The most famous guitar in the world. An extension of the man I most admire. When he leaves us I hope he gets to take his best friend with him. Growing up I remember thinking about how come he is playing with a ratty looking instrument. Now I know. Trigger means everything about Willy. A beautiful partnership.
God bless Willie and trigger ..so much to say ..so many memories .
The beauty in his playing style is that it features so much ad lib, with the occasional flat notes, or slightly out of tune chords, stops, and abrupt riffs, but its played with intensity, delight, fury, and passion in a whirlwind rollercoaster.
