Guild or not just interested in the reply - brand and model
I have bought quite a few Acoustics over the last couple years and landed one by chance that I absolutely love. I thought I was an F 30
bar none but then found a really nice Guild OM150. Must be more goodies along this line so I bought yet another Guild OM140 burst - Love it.
Then there was the Martin OM 21, OM 21 Special, Martin D18, Gibson J 45, AJ (advanced Jumbo), Guild D40s...etc, etc
I landed a used D140 burst that really took me by surprise. Super velvety feel and sound. The wider nut of the F30 and OMs and smooth neck action was a game changer. So just for grins I bought a Natural D140 from Sweetwater that just really changed everything for me. The wider nut and the fuller sound of a Dread but a bit crisper than the D140 Burst velvet feel and sound.
So yeah my favorite acoustic is a Guild - but the overseas D140 in natural. I just love to play this guitar and hear its' overtones and sweet sustain especially when in Open tunings, I even played it up against my old O25 Lowden which is no slouch by any means....yes, my D140 natural for me...is the clear winner.
And the D140 cost me less than $800.
