I also have no loyalty when it comes to builders. I own instruments built by at least six different companies. If you use numbers to determine where I lean though, Gibson comes in first as there are four in the house.

Bourgeois Guitars.
I've always wanted to tell someone that their acoustic guitar is "So Bourgeois." I am a strange and simple man.  Greg Rappleye

My favourite is my Bernabe classical guitar. It has the best tone, balanced and is the easiest to play of all the classical guitars I have tried. And it can play loud as well, a true concert guitar. It will most likely be my last classical guitar. Now if a nice Flamenco guitar came my way ...

What is your favorite acoustic guitar maker name?
Pono Parlor - reminds me of when I worked in midtown Manhattan 40 years ago...

LOWDEN HANDS DOWN
While I realize this is certainly subjective I would say in my thirty years of guitar buying, George Lowden. His current operation takes boutique guitar making to a new level. I have regularly noted here that many members can't conceive paying $8000.00 for a guitar. With all due respect, you've never played a Lowden.

I've owned a couple Martins i really loved & played a Gibson I wished I could've afforded. Im partial to Guild in part because they have (to my ear) a little different sound & necks that agree with my hand
Between my wife & myself there also are a couple Breedloves lurking in the house a Yamaha (her 1st guitar) & she's working towards a Taylor she really wants. im going to need another Guild to maintain the balance of power

I don't have a favorite guitar brand or a favorite car brand. I've tried and owned many models of each of them, over the years, and pretty much like every one I end up buying. I guess I can say, "I'm happy with what I've had and with what I got".

I'm a man of simple means... I simply love Martin guitars.
They have SO many great and interesting models this year too! My 2015 D-18 in the beautiful Ambertone suits me perfectly... but a 00 is drawing me near... and the new 2017 D-28! OH!!

Maybe I read it wrong but I thought the OP's question was, 'What is your favorite acoustic guitar maker name?' e.g. Froggy Bottom .... as in 'Froggy Bottom' is a quirky , unforgettable name.
Not 'What is the name of your favorite acoustic guitar maker?'
