What's Your Acoustic Guitar Of Choice?

[fraser]

ive got an apartment full of acoustics- but none on that list.
my favourites vary from day to day, but theyre all solid wood, mostly older than i am and wearing names like harmony, supertone, silvertone, oahu, kay, regal, framus, hofner and epiphone

I wish to hell I had that guitar now.

Blueridge BR 160 for me.

I voted Other. I've got a Simon and Patrick that I've been using for the past 14 years.

thanks very much.

no, I never did. I need to find one of those dentist mirrors.
I think I have it narrowed down to a '62 - '64.

My dad bought me a Martin 000-15s for Christmas 2007.
Loved it ever since.

I really like my S&P. I voted other, even though I would love a Martin. I have played some great ones: Gibson, Washburn, Ovation, etc. I would really love to get my hands on a Guild.

A Martin 00-15 for me. I keep it in our family room and I use it for coming up with ideas for songs, or simply jammin with whatever's on the tube. :) I like the small size and the articulation it gives out.

I play a Larrivee P09. A great little parlour guitar.

[zontar]

I have a Taro Classical-(MIJ in th 70's--probably identical to other guitars with other brand names on them, as was common of MIJ guitars of the time.)

I also have a Simon & Patrick 12 String (cedar top)

I have no 6 string flat top/steel string.
Maybe one day.

I'd be more than happy with a S&P, or other Godin brand.
I probably won't get a Dread or Jumbo size though.
I like medium sized acoustics better for what I'd be playing on them--mostly blues.
