I have a couple dozen old Martins (1898 - 1964) that I really enjoy and play often on rotation. Many of them have great stories that travel with them.
It's the old guitars I own that have the most meaning and give me the most pleasure. In the store inventory I have 100 or so new instruments ($4K - $15K) that all sound great, but I don't mind passing them on to new owners to enjoy. It's the old ones I can't bring myself to part with.
