  • Very nice UJ. Sounds great.

  • Yes, this is from the DVD I saw. Grant Boatwright, or a roadie (can't rememebr ) is seen erllier in DVD, pre concert,, showing " Hank" and Neil's other guitars to the camera. But certainly, Grant Boatwright is see being interviewed in a car, again pre concert, and I am sure he mentions Hank's guitar then. Here is link to the Ryman concert, and Hanks guitar , in full detail         http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Young:_Heart_of_Gold

  • Yes , probably same one Wes. Think guy doin guiatrs etc was in a car being interviewed at first (pre concert). Then he was filmed showing Hanks Martin guitar , and Neil's other guitars. In fact the guy was a country songwriter/publisher, name someting like "Boatman",or Boatright"(if memeory serves me well)

    .

  • Think Neil plays it as main guitar, Wes. First I knew of the Hank connection was when I got a loan of Harvest Moon DVD concert, and his roadie was showing the camera Neil's guitars :)  (if I rmemember right)

  • Thanks Owl, James and Ron.   Simple is good in my book.  And simple playing is about where I am at.  

  • Simple. Honest.

    Unca John.
  • Yes, Unk. Think Neil mentions it in his "Harvest Moon" DVD of his live show (few years back). Or one of his guitar maintenace guys/roadie, does. Hope yer weekend went well, ma man :)

  • No James, did not know Neil had Hanks old git.  Cool.  Derbarjo, I really like the rocking  banjo man!

  • very good uncle john good stuff with old sound

  • Nice one, Unk. You inspired me maybe to try doin a Hank Number I learned as a boy. Did you know that Neil Young has Hank's old Martin? What would that gitar be worth ?!!! :)
