Thread Name: Maybelle Carter's Gibson L-5 Guitar For Sale/SOLD
Subject: RE: Maybelle Carter's Gibson L-5
I was able to get the link to WSMV working...it is an amazing clip...I may not have this exactly right, but I think they said a Nashville business man, Bill McLain (sp?), paid almost $600,000 USD for the guitar and donated it to the Country Music Hall of Fame. George Gruhn is also in the clip.
It is the first time I have seen video of Maybelle playing her guitar. To say that it made my day is an understatement...
