I don't consider myself loyal to one particular brand. I appreciate what all makers bring to the table. In 2012, I went on a search for a Gibson J-45, mostly cause I always wanted one but never could afford one and they're a good all around guitar. I ended up with a 2012 Gibson Songwriter Deluxe Custom. When I picked up that guitar, I never even knew the Songwriter line existed, but the guitar blew me away. It's a brighter sounding guitar, especially for Gibson, and different than their popular J-45's, Hummingbird's, SJ-200's etc. but you can still tell that it's a Gibson.
I'm surprised people don't talk about the Songwriter line more often. It's certainly more of a modern day instrument compared to their other offerings but it can cover any style of music no problem. Mine doesn't have the mustache bridge and has the vintage sunburst finish so it's traditional looking with a modern day tone. |

As much as I love my D18 and I do love it,I'm convinced I'm more of a Gibson guy. BTW my newly-acquired J15 is a really nice compliment to my J45. That being said... "A J45 is a J45."

I'm going to vote for the Southern Jumbo. It sounds slightly different than the J45 and is a great, versatile guitar
