I had to give up playing my trusty old M. Suzuki because my stiff fingers couldn't get round the neck any more (Dupuytrens). I bought a Martin 00016SGT an all of a sudden my fingerpicking was easier. Now after 5 years the fingers are so stiff I can't get round the Martin. The other day I picked up the Suzuki (which I have hardly played since I got the Martin) and found it fitted my fingers fine! My muse has a wicked sense of humour.

Has anyone else rediscovered an old favourite guitar in a similar way?

It seems like everytime I buy a new instrument I play it non-stop for weeks. Then I'm able to "rediscover" how much I love my '67 D-18.
