I'm pretty sure this is down to humidity (humidity in my playing room swings between 45% and 60% at the moment) and temperature fluctuations. I imagine these changes affect each guitar a little differently, so usually at least one it in the zone.

The really bad days are when none are really singing... Then I just don't play, otherwise I get paranoid that something's wrong and that great tone is gone forever...
I agree with this. I tend to leave all of my guitars out of the case. Everyday it seems one is the star (probably due to environmental conditions). The lammies of course are mostly constant. All wood guitars seem to open and close more often as a result.
