OT/Best acoustic guitar I ever played was a Gibson. A 1952 J-200. Have played other J-200s AWA many other Gibson acoustics. Nothing else even came close. Even the Martin I now use isn't as good though I've been told by a talented guitarist/luthier that it's one of the best 00-28s he's played. The 1952 was just incredible. Like thunder and lightning for bass and treble. Was the day to day performing instrument of white folk blues trailblazer Dave Van Ronk. One of the biggest mistakes of my life was not buying it. Instead set up the deal for a close friend who later cut two LPs for Columbia in the mid 70s. Broke my heart that instead of restoring it, he tossed the original neck, and fingerboard, replacing them with new more narrow ones. Then he sold it, without telling me, for $800 a few years later. Just look at what even a good mid-50s J-200 goes for today! What a shame?! Iso
