Jeff Hanneman Family Gifted Me A Priceless Guitar (SLAYER)!!!

- On 15 September 2024, I was able to meet Kathryn Hanneman, who’s the wife of the late Jeff Hanneman from Slayer! Ms Kathryn is so kind and loving and I was really excited to meet her for a long time! It was amazing talking with her and before we left, she said she has something special for me and brought out an ESP guitar case! Inside was an ESP LTD Jeff Hanneman Tribute 2014 in an amazing Urban Camo color! She said that this model was made shortly after Jeff Hanneman passed away in 2013 and this was a very, very limited edition since they only made 666 numbers of this guitar. But the guitar she gave was even more special. It was the first sample that was created and ESP gifted this to Ms Kathryn a few months after Jeff's passing and for so long she has treasured this, cherished this, remembers Jeff Hanneman because of this and that is so close to her heart. And then she gifts it to me!! Although we have been friends for a couple of years, we met for the first time and she gave this to me and I just can’t explain what that means to me. I’m honored, grateful, overwhelmed, and very thankful for all this. I’m very sad that Mr Hanneman is not here with us now and he is someone we all miss. Slayer is a special band in my life who inspired me to start playing guitar when I was 6 so the connection to the beginning of my musical journey to this moment receiving an extremely special guitar from Jeff Hanneman family became overwhelming to process. It was very emotional for me to record this that night after meeting her. I promise that I will take good care of this guitar and treasure it in the memory of the great Jeff Hanneman of Slayer!

Maya,
This video is so beautiful. Miss Kathryn Hanneman is an Angel, and it’s so wonderful and inspiring to see one Angel, gifting another precious Angel such an important Symbol of the legacy of Jeff Hanneman.
You both are the definition of generosity, kindness and love ❤️
What a wonderful gift, Maya. A cool gift to a even cooler little girl, with a talent that puts even older musicians at the curve.
Your capabilities and passion radiates out of you. Everything else is a result of that.
Maya, That gave me goosebumps. You deserve every bit of it. At such a young age you are showing love, dedication, passion and hard-work towards playing guitar in heavy metal genre which is very rare to see these days. You have an amazing God given talent. I’m sure you will keep it going perfecting it every single day. I hope to see you playing in a major concert someday in New York where I live. That’s indeed a great honor to receive a guitar as a gift from legends. To me that’s a great accomplishment than winning AGT. You go girl. 👍💪👏

No recuerdo haber conocido a alguien tan joven recibir tantos regalos valiosos y q envuelven un gran valor sentimental y mucho menos de músicos del metal ,ellos valoran mucho su legado y al brindartelos demuestran el aprecio q sienten por ti,se q vas a continuar su legado porque lo llevas en la sangre.Muchas felicidades te lo mereces
By the time you're 12, you're gonna have one of the best guitar collections going!

I was 10 and love to learn guitar and started but unfortunate i have to stop, this is on 1986 long ago now Iam 48.I love music and specially guitar.When I saw your playing guitar i gone in my old days.You rock And God Bless you.
Keep going, ❤
Wow. That guitar has enough energy you might not have to plug it in. That's super cool 😎
Jeff's spirit is living on inside that guitar because it's the 1st prototype that was produced by ESP to honor his musical legacy so that truly makes it a one of a kind instrument and Maya is the luckiest and most deserving person in the entire world to receive it as a gift from Jeff's widow!!!! 🌎😇😊 🎸
Happy for ya, kid!
Treasure that guitar (I know you will) it's such an amazing gift.
When you said that Jeff was the heart and soul of Slayer, you were 100% right.
Keep rockin.
Kathryn is really amazing. She always answers my messages. Well done Maya please keep Jeff legacy always.
Congrats. This is so cool even better that you appreciate it so much
That may have been the greatest thing I've ever seen
Always ❤❤❤u maya 🙂🙂🙂👍👍👍❤❤❤
Congratulations Maya!! This video is so powerful in a way if anyone is a Slayer fan, it will hit you right in the gut 😢 I remember the day when news broke about Jeff’s passing, I was in shock. All that day from the time I woke up that morning I had an uncomfortable feeling about something. My brother texted me that evening and told me about it. Then I went to the news cycle just to confirm, surely it was true. I totally miss Jeff in Slayer as well. I’ve often wondered if he went on his own, what would his solo album sound like. Again, congrats Maya on a wonderful treasure🎉. R.I.P. Jeff 😢
I can't fathom that you are 11. You are so well spoken and poised. I'm not kidding when I say you are a big part of the future of metal. All these artists recognize what we the fans see in you. Keep being humble. Keep being brutal (in your playing) and keep metal in your heart. Much love from a long time SLAYER fan (and a new Maya fan).
I agree - Jeff Hanneman was the heart and soul of Slayer - well said
Dear people, have you been counting? Holt, Hanneman, Jones, Skolnick, and possibly also from the Burton family (I'm too lazy to search for that now) - a forthfold knighting of the young princess of metal guitar!
My life music i ❤love music i❤love songs best of luck
This kid the way she speaks is so good to listen to keep rocking 🎸🎸🎸 we are here lots of love from Nagaland ✋🎸🎸
Great tribute to the legend, maya you goin places dear...raja kutti❤
This is an incredible honour to have this gift bestowed upon you. You have earned the respect of some of the world's most renowned guitarists. One of 666! Rare!
Wow Maya 🤟🤘 this briught me to tears seeing Jeff's wife give that to you. Holy crap. What a moment that must have been. You are one lucky girl, and like Jeff's wife said to you, thank you for keeping his legacy alive. Long live Slayer 🤘🤘
Hello again Maya,what a honor for you ,this guitar handing over to you shows just how much respect and love that people have for you ,your passion for guitar,for metal music also has opened up the arms of a huge world wide family that recognises the true talent ,and passion you have for our music,and its the passion and excitement you have for metal music that keeps us all wanting to see you become the best you can be
Maya, as a Psychic Medium I can promise you Jeff was there with you in Spirit, by your side, watching over you, your family and Jeff's family at that very special moment. What a very humble and special day, in which I know you will cherish forever. 🙏
You're lucky👍😀
RIP Jeff and congrats Maya 🤟
Why don't know but I just felt with goosebumps that Jeff Hanneman's sole went to you when you were inside your mother's belly. It's possible that before and after born someone's soul may go inside to someone. I think you are him.
What a beautiful gesture of love ! What kind of earth shattering generosity of a precious woman tarumatised by her loss and what a gloriously wornderful Maya, a child from heaven. I'm in tears of great joy! May you both and your families be blessed with the best of heaven!
❤❤❤❤
I am so happy for you dear! May you play it for many, many years.
I want to see Maya and BabyMetal playing together 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Think about it. Maya is ten years old and hanging with Kathryn Hanneman. Maya has an inspiring aurora personality. She'll be getting some major endorses . What a story to talk about.
Jeff would probably be incredibly proud of you Maya! this is so amazing. Can't wait to see what other things you accomplish while keeping Slayers legacy alive!
Use it wisely & make Mr. Hanneman up there happy. Still miss him as hero but a King of Thrash Metal 😔. Rooting for you.
Dear Kathryn you are such a big heart woman. Respect Respect and Respect 🙏. May you live long.
Wow....Just all round wow! What an incredible touching gift that Kathryn Hannerman gave ...and Maya , I just know you will be rocking that guitar on stage in front of thousands, in memory of Jeff Hannerman !
Unglaublich, mir fehlen die Worte. Was für ein Ritterschlag. Jeff Hannemans Guitar. I listen SLAYER since 1981. Was für ein großartiges Geschenk.
Wow,, wow, wow, had tears in my eyes for more than one reason. Best wishes. Condolence to Ms Kathryn & rest of Jeff's family & loved ones. What a unbelievable gesture. May this guitar via Maya, connect the next generation with Jeff's music & his memory. God bless...
