In order of present preference:

- Gibson Byrdland: yes you have to sit down and watch the feedback, but it plays by itself - I only need to make sure I don't get in her way (not so easy).

- Fender Strat custom shop 62 heavy relic: This one also plays by itself, but it's more for those occasions when I feel less mellow

- Martin D-28 1955: beautiful acoustic for when that particular muse comes calling.

- Gibson ES-345: that one is my old one, 33 years. Needs work on the neck/frets, so don;t play it too much until I get that done.

- Ovation Glen Campbell: Bought this about 30 years ago. Never play it these days. I think the neck needs to be reset - the strings are about 2 inches from the neck Besides, I now hate the sound of Ovations ...
