I love guitars - each one has it's own individual sound - for blues I sure love the old Gibsons - I've an early 40's Southern Jumbo (banner headstock) and an early 40's Super Jumbo J100 (one of about 140 made) for flatpicking the SJ also sounds great but I also enjoy Martins - I've got a 1970 D45 and 1972 D41 as well as a 1943 D18 - for fingerpicking I love my 1934 00-42 and my 1964 00-21 although I've got a number of Martins in reserve -2 000-28 herringbones -one is a 1944 the other a sunburst 1938 - a 1977 SOM-45 (Torch headstock) that rings like a bell and a nice 1950 00-18 --sure would like a 30's or 40's D28 to add to my collection though.....
