What are playing most these day? Any particular reason why?
My favorite right now is my little LX1 "Little Martin". I've had this guitar for a couple of years and never really cared for it's tone. Not, that is, until it was suggested I try a set of D'Addario Silk and Steel light gauge .011-.047 strings. All of the sudden I'm hearing these rivers of sweet tone coming out of the instrument. It's currently my go-to guitar.

Nice, Brian.
I've been playing electric six string lately. My modified Fender Blacktop Strat gets most of my attention. (On the left).If hope can grow from dirt like me, it can be done. - EV0 -

My 1987 Martin D-18 limited edition (7 of 15) quilted mahogany baby is my favorite, but it's too nerve-racking to play it around the kids.
I just picked up a beater Fender F-200 that sounds a lot better than I thought it would (perhaps thanks to a local luthier), and the kids and I can go to town on that thing.I SAW PEARL JAM0 -
