For the last four decades, Marty Lanham has been an integral part of Nashville’s music community. He helped launch the legendary Station Inn; he worked for nearly a decade repairing instruments for George Gruhn; and today he serves as a world-class builder and trusted repairman for many country music and bluegrass legends.

The Fretboard Journal #35 contains a lengthy interview with Lanham and his Nashville Guitar Company. As a companion to that piece, photographer/videographer Nathan Shuppert filmed this short documentary on Lanham for the FJ.
