hard call....no, not really. my 1965 Guild D40; hands down, of my three acoustics the one with the clearest voice, wonderfully articulate when playing loud yet retains her clarity when whispering. there's my 1969 D25 I'd rather play a blues slide piece on but the D40 can rise to the occasion if called upon and then in the next number sweetly sing a ballad of the rugged western mountains. I wish I had more opportunities to use her in performance these days but the present ensemble requires I play my '97 Benedetto archtop electric to stay within the group mix....
