He must have played the piss out of that guitar to wear a hole in it like that. I see a whole room of guitars behind him they must not get played by the looks of that Takamine.
It is very soft cedarwood, and as he was playing a lot on the streets with it, where you play the guitar much harder to get heard, it just keeps degrading from play.
I actually do have the same guitar as this..... I love it! Glen Hansard is one of my favourite singer songwriters.

Both amazing songwriters hope they will work together again! I love "Begina Again" too
He is an amazing musician 🙏
Yes he is, and a wonderful soul!
Tenho musicalidade e violao inspirado no lendário "the horse"
The guitar loves you
Looks like Willy Nelson's Trigger.
Sounds sick dude
