Nathan Connolly first contacted Gary at Hutchins Guitars when he was recording the band's album, A Hundred Million Stars, in Galway, Ireland. After a long conversation Gary sent a black Memphis to the band's recording studio and Nathan used the guitar whilst recording the album.

The Memphis gives Nathan a feel and tones that he cannot get playing his Les Paul or Telecaster. 'I'm not one of these guitarists who has lots of guitars,' said Nathan. 'I find a few guitars I like to play and I stick with them.'
