Some musicians play guitars. Willie Nelson lives through one. For more than half a century, his battered Martin N-20 nylon-string guitar, affectionately named Trigger, has been more than an instrument — it has been a partner, a diary, and a living icon of American music. Every scratch, every hole, every worn string is not damage, but history. And every time Nelson lays his hands on it, Trigger speaks with a voice rawer, freer, and more honest than anything polished or pristine could ever achieve.
