Back in 2012 we visited country legend Vince Gill at his home studio in Nashville, TN to check out some of the rarest instruments in his collection of vintage acoustic and electric guitars.
From the the guitar he learned to play on, his father's vintage Gibson ES-125T, to the 1942 Martin D-28 herringbone he bought at age 18, to his 1960 slab board Fender Stratocaster, Vince shares some of his favorite instruments and the stories behind how he got them.

I think I'm missing a few strings and the tuners are beyond repair, but one day God is gonna fix me up in Heaven and I'll play better than new up there in Heaven. I even might join some of you players. Cheers.

Jealousy would be my guess. The world is full of people that resent others having what they don't. Never mind the fact that Vince worked and played his ass off to get to where he is, and deserves what he has, a certain faction will always hate him for it. They are probably the type that are too lazy to even try to work hard and succeed at anything

If you're a musician and you've got the cash there is nothing better than having a collection of instruments, large or small at your disposal. There to play, safeguard and love. We are only visitors to God's beautiful world once, and for a short time. These are the tools of a musicians trade and in the right hands anything is possible. A musician friend, no longer here, told me never feel guilty or self doubt ownership of instruments when they are there to be played. That was always enough to reassure me. Thanks Mark. Thanks Vince for kindly taking the time to showing us round yours, we can see you are rightly proud of them.

When I turned 21 (a thousand years ago) my dear mother bought me a mid-range Ibanez acoustic. Nothing special. I took guitar lessons from a guy called Peter Rawkins and he had a great ear. The crappy intonation annoyed him and so he changed the nut and saddle and lowered the action and showed me how to tweak the truss rod and that bloody thing rang like a bell. Still does 37 years later. You can have your pre-war martins and a 100 guitars in drawers (and I’m jealous) but really, you only have two hands and can only play one guitar at a time. When people ask “what’s the best guitar you have ever played?” I say the next one I get to pick up. Such a privilege to just play what you have and enjoy it.

I heard somewhere that Merle Haggard went to visit the Country Music Hall Of Fame. He referred to the singers there including himself. (As the chosen few). I am here to say that Vince Gill is for sure one of the chosen few. Vince has more talent is his little finger then most stars out there today. Vince can play any instrument he touches. He can sang like no other. And he has a heart for his fellow man. The man has a love for music instruments. Maybe Vince was born to late in life.Naaa, I think Vince came along at the right moment. He can carry on where Great stars like George Jones and Merle Haggard left off. God Bless You Vince. Please keep the great music and sounds going.

The people that are talking shit about Vince Gill are clearly jealous of him. He's been a very successful musician for many many years, so he has the financial resources to afford such a collection. Remember, I'm sure some of his guitars were free, because all those celebrity guitar players get free instruments, and also, he's worth millions of dollars, so him dropping 75K on a vintage guitar, is like most of us buying a pack of gum, it isn't shit. And lets not forget the insurance claim from those flood damaged instruments he lost, I'm sure that gave him plenty to go do some guitar shopping with.

I bought a Martin D12-35 new in 1974 and like an idiot, I sold it in 1982 (I needed the money at the time). I always kicked myself for that decision. But then about 2 years ago, I was sitting on the John at work (really) and to ass the time I was browsing through Craigs List on my iPhone. Just for grins I plugged "Martin" into the search window and all of the sudden, there it was - someone about 3 hours south of me selling was selling a 1974 Martin D12-35! The price was actually very reasonable based on similar guitars I'd seen in EBay, so I called the person and told them to consider it sold! I have a 1974 D12-35 again after al those years and I will NEVER sell this one!

I got a beautiful sunburst Gibson Les Paul standard in 2003 for Christmas from my dad when I was 18, and foolishly (looking back) 5 years later in college I traded it for a Fender 52 reissue hot rod Telecaster because I wanted to play country music at the time but didn’t have the money. I still to this day regret that decision not necessarily for the guitar itself but because it was such an amazing gift from my dad and should’ve held on to it forever. Maybe I’ll find one just like it one day.

I still miss the Epiphone/Gibson Sunburst that I traded in for the D-18 in 1973.

The Gibson ES-125 is severely underrated. My great grandfather bought one after WW2 and now my grandfather owns it. One day I hope to own it as well. It's beautifully worn in and plays like a dream. They're not considered high-end guitars but if it's an heirloom it's priceless.

This is awesome. Vince Gill was very kind enough to show us his guitar collection. He is a legend in country music.

Anytime I've ever seen Vince Gill interviewed I think, "Now that's the kind of guy you would want as a friend". He doesn't seem to have an ounce of hostility, arrogance or dishonesty. They don't come any better. I'd even buy a used car from him. : )

I really admire the passion he has for these guitars. They're not just pieces of wood and strings, or museum pieces to him. He truly appreciates them for what they are, and can absolutely play them to their utmost potential. If he were just some rich dude who likes to buy extremely expensive guitars, but couldn't play a lick, then people could hate on him, but that's certainly not the case.

Holy shit. That old Martin from 1928 sounded like the best friend you ever had. Almost a hundred years old. Just staggering! Well deserved. Mr Gill seems to be a good guy!

Vince used his father's guitar at 1998 CMA to sing "The Key to Life" that is a true story about him and his father. Beautiful song and he is often unable to complete singing because of his love for his father but his guitar solo is amazing.
