Default New Guitar Day!

Hello everyone,

After a full year playing my Martin everyday, I thought it was time to add a new member to the acoustic family.

Can you guess from the pictures below what guitar I bought?

Congratulations, Joe! That sure is beautiful wood there. I'm going to guess it's an acoustic, right? Did I win the prize?

I think it is one of Taylor Fall Limited models, Cocobolo/Sitka.

Yup, that's gotta be the new Segovia signature model.

Bourgeois? Maybe a DB Sig? Sexauer? Gorgeous at any rate.
