My electric was home made and sort of looked like a solid body les paul custom. It played well. I play trumpet mainly, and like you I have a collection of them and each one has a separate personality and pull something different out of me from each other. I also gave away a classical guitar. And I had two Dreadnaught style acoustics that were made by King (I think was the name). They were excellent guitars with solid rosewood back and sides. Loud, clear and wonderful. One got stolen, the other I sold to someone. My first good one was a Gibson acoustic with a pointed cutaway - a CF-100 that I bought in Chicago. http://home.provide.net/~cfh/cf100.html I wish I still had this one - and my first King which was the better of the two dreadnaughts. I sold the CF-100 to buy a harpsichord kit in about 1968, which started me on a whole different track.
