I too am a musical monogamist.

My 1972 vintage Framus Nashville dreadnaught six string (limited edition), which I bought in 1978.

Like a fine wine, the tone just gets better year on year.

I also have a 1954 J-45 Gibson. Too much bass for recording, but a nice old box too.

I guess if I had to name my very favorite, it would be my Apollo 12 string.

Gurian, I'd never heard of them when I bought it in Edinburgh, near Bennets Bar but forget shop name, long gone. Over 30 yrs ago. Just the mellow not jangly sound I wanted. We all need different.

Gurians are kind of legendary here in the U.S., at least they were where I came from. I played a jumbo at The Guitar Shop in D.C. back in the '70's and it was a winner. Michael Millard of Froggy Bottom Guitars came out of the Gurian shop and he now makes some of the best steel strings on the planet. I'm fortunate to own one of his F models.
Last year I acquired a Canadian-made 000 12 fret Boucher with an Adirondack top and it's the best fingerstyle guitar I've owned and it also works well for Old Time flatpicking.

My favourite is the one that spends its time 'out' on a stand in the dining room, and that's a Jack & Danny. One of two.
I have other, and much more expensive, and possibly better, guitars.
