Do You Agree?
 
I do, but I'm slightly biased.

I'm sure there are tons of others but that list is as good as any.

A bunch of nice guitars way out of my league. I’d pick the Collings out of all of those.

I can’t take the list seriously though since they did not put a single Gibson on there. I have to have the Gibson sound and only a Gibson sounds like a Gibson.

I'm a "Taylor guy" and that was a bad entry. Every other one was a specific model. Taylor's was a custom shop (make your own).. ...well every other manufacturer on that list has a custom shop, too.

I can't take it too seriously since it didn't have Bourgeois or Lowden on it either.

Bourgeois Bryan Sutton Limited Edition Dreadnought model is there and is for sale new at a couple places for just over $10,000. Get you one!

Well, that was a very nice list of guitars. An acoustic guitar player could certainly enjoy every one of those guitars.

Very nice list of guitars, but I don't wish for any of them.

I agree. Lot's of fine guitars, but none that are on my wish list. I did own the 1937 Authentic back when my old bones would play a dread - beautiful guitar.

You can all laugh at me but I'd walk past all of those for a good one of these.

That list is as silly as the so called shootouts where they compare guitars from $200 - $8000.

brijas99 02-18-2019 08:03 PM

I'm with brucebubs, that's a list of some very fine instruments without a doubt, but how can you not have a Gibson in that mix. I am sure you could ask 1000 people and get 1000 different answers. But man, no Gibson on the list.

Duck916 02-18-2019 08:05 PM

I dunno, it seems to me that these super high-end guitars embody the principle of diminishing returns.

I doubt the typical $1000 guitar is twice as good (however you measure that) as a $500 guitar. I'm sure that a $20,000 guitar isn't twenty times better than the $1000 instrument. But I'm just a beginner, so most of the differences are surely lost on me anyway.

Some of them sure are pretty, though.

Agreed. Harrumph. No list would please everyone but there are some fantastic guitar therein.

89bruin 02-18-2019 08:29 PM

Nope. Nothing there on my bucket list.

Wade Hampton 02-18-2019 08:39 PM

I like all of them, but need none of them.

Thank goodness for that!!
