For me, I don't think Guild's are the top of the line guitars, but I just enjoy playing Guilds more than any others. They just seem to connect with me, and seem to make my own songs sound better, not other bands', but my songs. After that, I love Martin D-28s (the only rosewood guitar that I adore).

I will say, Larrives are excelent. They have a more folkish sound, while Martins and Taylors have more of a rockish sound.

Really, the thing is not to only choose based on sound, or the best action, but the ones you just connect with. If you connect with them, you have the right guitar, and help you speak through it.

I have that, it was $50 and 2000 marlboro miles. Its my beater guitar but for what it costs, you cant beat it. Its actually a real nice sounding/looking guitar for the price.

5 pts/pack of cigs x 400 packs x $3/pack + $50= $1250!

Get one of those that says Martin & Co on the headstock. :lol:

Seriously though, I played an amazing Lakewood last week. J-32.
