"a second soundhole" .. this guy should be a salesman
-
This guy sounds like the Bob Ross of guitar maintenance.
-
This guitar has probably absorbed more weed smoke than Snoop Dogg’s lungs.

This was the video that started it all for me. In a cold morning, on my way to highschool, I stumbled upon this on the bus, watched it, and I loved it so much I got deeper into guitar repairs. I ran my own repair shop in my hometown for 1,5 years, and moved to Hungary and now i'm an intern in one of the best repair shops in the country, and they like my work. Thanks, stewmac

Back in the 70's I was working as part of stage security at a Willie's concert in Wichita Falls, TX and Willie broke a string on Trigger and handed it to me to change. Was a privilege just to hold it.

What an honor to be trusted with one of the most iconic guitars in the worlds.

Mark is truly one of the finest luthiers in the world. I've known him for almost my entire career. He's made guitars for ZZ Top, Keith Richards, and countless more, including the some of the best steel players on the planet! Andvl most importantly, is a beautiful person, with the soul of a player. Just here to back up all of the good things said about him. Truth.

This video nearly makes me cry. This fella is so wonderful. Not my first time watching it. Everyone is pushing Willy to get a new guitar, and they recreated the exact same thing, but no dice. So this guy keeps making sure ol' Trigger stays alive. So great.

I love how his voice makes it sound like a bedtime story
-
The coolest thing about Willie is after every show, he stays outside his Honeysuckle Rose bus and meets, greets, takes pics, signs autographs, and visits with every single person who wants to stay after the show and wait their turn to meet him. He's a great guy, good person, and an American icon.

Mark Erlewine is a gem of a man, and a great luthier. He fixed my dad's old Gibson with the kind of love, attention and respect I would have done myself if I only had Mark's gift. It is humbling to spend time with such a legend as he is. Thanks for this.

Listening to this mans voice with professional sound equipment is like giving my brain a massage
-
This guitar needed a pickguard more than any guitar in history.
-
Huge hole in the guitar. Some minor fixes
-
If trigger doesn't end up in the Smithsonian after Willie goes, nothing deserves to go there.
-
I have seen this video a few times, each time I enjoy this guitar repairman and his humble approach at helping to keep one of our heroes continuing to make top level country music.
-
We need a version of Siri with this man's voice.
-
Most of the time we don’t hear about the people who support the Stars. This is a nice little salute to them. Great video
-
The Bob Ross of luthiers, what a great presenter and his work speaks for itself, thanks StewMac for this, this is lovely
-
What a honor it must be to work on Trigger you really are preserving a vital piece of music history Willies unique style of playing has helped contribute to his signature sound as a guitarist his sound is equally as reckonized as Clapton, Hendrix , Eddie Van Halen , and almost any other great player
