So, I can't sleep. If I get 3 to 4 hours each night I consider myself lucky. All the Gonga, Pinot Noir or Pinot Grigio doesn't help. But, I'm still sucking in air so no bitches here.
One of the side bemefits is having bunches of time to spend with my guitars (and I do) Here's what I've discovered. I've owned a mega mount of Gibson, Martin and Taylor guitars along with a lot of really good imports. But, my heart is with Guild. To my ear, they offer the best sound/tone and at a price point that is far better than most other brands.
For Dreadnaught Mahogany (man I miss Marc=Dreadnut) the D 40 is the King IMHO. I have a NH D 40C which is Primo, (along with an Oxnard D 40T and D 40T Deluxe) that may be the finest Dreads on the market today. I just love the model. I absolutely love these guitars.
For Dreadnaught RW my hands down favorite is the D 50. I like it better than the D 55 or any of the DV series guitars
For Jumbos, the F 50/F 50R are the winners by a huge margin. Better (to my ear) than the Gibson SJ 200 Std or any other brand of Jumbo I've ever played. I have way too many of them but what the hell, I Iove 'em.
For smaller bodied guitar the F 30 is my guitar of choice. I have a Spruce/Mahogany (in transit), a 60th Anniv. all KOA, a vinatge F 30R. a Custom Shop F 30 RLS and a Custom Shop F 30 Cocobolo, all exceptional.
Anyway, just rambling but I really love the Brand and hope it can stay around for years to come.
