You’d probably get a contact high!

I don't have any guitar lust or hero worship going on, so it would be this one from the guitars I already own

Ahhh. Good one. I’d add whatever Nick Drake was playing on pink Moon.

There are lots of musicians I admire for their playing and their songwriting, but that alone doesn’t make me want to play their guitars. But I do like a great player getting a sublime tone from a particular instrument and the “one” I’d like to check out is the Ryan guitar Pierre Bensusan played on the Altiplanos album. It’s like a sunbeam coming through the clouds.

I actually already did this, as far as instruments associated with famous players: Circa 2001, I played Wes Montgomery’s L-5 CES, the single pickup version with the heart inlay on the top. Mandolin Brothers had it, and Stan was gracious enough to let me play it. Somewhere I have a photo of the encounter.
It was this one: https://youtu.be/-iVgONy8kMY?si=x0Pcnp50y3xxutwj FYI, I think that’s Rick Laird (later famous in the original Mahavishnu Orchestra) on bass. |

It would be this 1941 Martin D-45 I'm playing at Gryphon Stringed Instruments a couple years ago.
Amazingly, this guitar was in a USN ship locker in Pearl Harbor when the attack occurred. Both the guitar and its owner survived the attack. As I recall, this one sold in a day at over $200K. Best sounding acoustic I've ever played, but WAY out of my price range. Last edited by 6L6; 03-26-2024 at 09:36 AM. |

Can't really think of much....... maybe an original Ditson 111.

My brother has an old J-45; he thinks it's great.
I've played it when it was a lot younger (1969), but it did not impress me, maybe because he & I had tried some Martin Dreads at a music store the same day. He bought the Gibson because it was what he could afford at the time; he really wanted a D-28, but it was almost twice the price. Also, I'm not a Dread fan, mainly because I'm looking for better tone, not more noise. Besides, he's just a Bass player; hehe |

I wouldn't mind playing a Languedoc. It doesn't have to be one of Trey's, though plugging in to his rig would be something else.
