I met Mr Martin in Louisville around 2010… he was such a nice guy and actually handed me this guitar to check out… such a cool experience!

[mtf]

Great show boys! Love and light to all.

[samclemmons]

Wow! Hank Jr. gave it away! That is amazing!

[Noitpure]

I had a Gibson Collector’s Choice #15, Greg Martin Les Paul. Bought it brand new and it was a spectacular guitar. Hank the Plank has fascinated me for years. Sadly, I had to sell it but I’m so thankful I had it for the time I did. Thank you for the wonderful interview with Greg talking about its history and giving us an up-close peek at it.

[zellarecords]

I’ve seen that guitar in person, and played Richard Young’s 52’ Tele, those guys are super cool cats, good times!! Can’t wait for part 2

[tombstoneslim]

Truly one of the sweetest, kindest souls on the planet! Definitely have him take you to the practice house, Otis!! Where it all started…GOOD PEOPLE!! Thanks for sharing!

"This is exactly what I wanted as a kid!" Me at 42, "This is exactly what I want!"

[michaelr.]

What a story! It warms my heart to know that despite getting some big money offers, he has kept the guitar. With the Hank Jr. and Ed King connection, this guitar would probably go for half of a million dollars today. It make me happy to know that loves this guitar and has kept it.

I was lucky enough to see The Kentucky Headhunters 2 nights in a row this summer in Maryville Tenn and McCaysville Ga..Got to hang with Fred and Doug Really great guys down home folks love the show always a great show every time I have seen them.Thanks Otis next time I see you I will wear my Truckers hat. thanks excellent work.

[earlthepearl]

Otis- man, you hang with some of the coolest guys!

[Southern.child]

I love hearing Greg tell these stories man!!! That’s for sure a special guitar man, and a great backstory.

[jimmyjambon]

Hank is from my hometown in Louisiana. Born just a few miles from where I sit. He'll be here April 20th for a show. I bought tickets for my parents for Christmas. 👌🙏

[telebender]

Greg just seems like such a genuinely great, down-to-earth dude. Can't wait to see the play date video!

[leddygee]

Right Place, Right Time... That's a great story!
