It looks like a D-45 old Hank is playing. I'm saying D-45 and not D-41 because by that time in his career, old Hank probably could have afforded the slightly blingier of the two. EDIT: Might be a custom. It looks like his name on the fretboard.

I love that.
It’s a D-45 with some custom features. A D-41 doesn’t have abalone around the fretboard.
I got to see both of those guys at the Ryman ca. 1964.

Of course, I should have called this thread "A flash from the post-Bill Monroe golden past of country music." Don't want to offend anybody.

In a time of vulgar suits, that one must have taken the prize. Lord, Liberace would have looked over the top in that.

Big thumbs up. Hank looks ridiculous but sings great. He needs that flashy suit to take attention away from his toupee.
