Probably a Cordoba C5, due to price and availability.

I could do with one - considering it again actually.
either one of the guitars in my sig would work out nicely- but it will probably the 000-18 should I just keep one... I have found there are benefits to consistently playing the same guitar- especially when there are time constraints in life. but if i were retired or had more time- i can see having multiple guitars. so... maybe best to pick one- make it a good one-- and enjoy madhat. |

"The biggest advantage of CF is that they don't require finicky care... fear of scratches and dings, fear of heat, fear of humidity... I am free of all that stress with a CF." You have almost talked me into making my next guitar a carbon fiber one. |

Now retired, I have all the time in the world; let's see what difference that makes. I bought my current guitar just before I retired and got married. I do have access to a Fender acoustic owned by my wife who like me, does not play but wants to, and we are trying to find a way to afford lessons. We are both folkies. I am really heartened by the tremendous response from AGFers; thanks, y'all. Last edited by Fred Watson; 03-29-2015 at 12:28 PM. Reason: fix spelling |

I've had the steel string for 8 years, the classical for 10 and the cross-over for about 2. I have no motivation at the moment to be acquired by any more. |

I like your awareness of what is really going on -- we get acquired.
Thanks. |

This is an interesting one... I occasionally think of "the one" I could get in exchange for my Texan + D1A... (+ a little more $$?)...
No hurry though, and I'm not looking. Gosh, how insanely lucky are so many of us? If I had to pick one it'd be my Taylor jumbo. After 150+ duo & solo gigs, years of weekly church services, etc., I could almost "name" it a la Willie's Trigger. And... I have always wanted a Wurlitzer 200. What's better: three acoustics, or two acoustics and a vintage set of keys? (I know, I know: "AND", not "or") One is fine. More is a wonderful luxury.

Guitars are like women in many many ways.....sometimes one's not enough, sometimes one's too many.

Only one is certainly better than none. But I've always made it a practice to try to own at least two guitars. One being my main guitar that usually has some value. The other being a playable beater that would be difficult to sell even if I wanted to. That way I know if times ever get bad enough that I'm forced to sell my guitar. Which has happened MANY times in my younger days. I still have something to thump on.

Sure, one guitar can be enough, if it's the right guitar. I sold about six guitars last fall, and bought two. I have more in those two than all the guitars I've ever had combined. I tell myself now that I'll probably never buy another guitar. It might even be true!
