Thread Name: What is your favourite acoustic guitar?
Subject: RE: What is your favourite acoustic guitar?
Of course they're all different.
I spent the lunchtime today going along Denmark Street (London, England) trying out to see if anything could replace my trouble and strife's 1961 Hagstrom.
Tried a lot of things I knew she would not like.
Found one Collings - enough bass (that's pretty big), clean, clear mids and trebles, no splash or jangle, and good sustain.
Found one Santa Cruz, nearly as good.
Maybe 4 or 5 as good as my Mugen (totally different sound).
All way out of the price range I had in mind.
But the two best I've ever seen have to be William Pint's Goodall, and Jay Turner's Armstrong.
