Let's just say that someone wanted to build a Guild acoustic collection representing the output of the company before Fender stepped in. What do you think should be the five or six core guitars of such a collection, and which ones would be ancillary?
For example, is the D-25 core? If so, which one, the all-mahogany or the spruce top? Does the arched back or braced back make a difference?
Are the Gruhn models representative, or just a glitch in time?
If the guitars are all "players", does NYC vs. Hoboken vs. Westerly vs. Corona vs. Tacoma make a difference?
What about dreadnaught vs auditorium vs jumbo?
What about maple vs rosewood vs mahogany in the same model? Or even pearwood or ash?
Just curious what the general thoughts of the board are on this issue.
