I thought it would be a fun topic. Just like cars or motorcycles, etc they all get you to the same place but I'm sure we all have favorites. Franklin is still my favorite

I'm partial to MSA's, especially the newer one's, but I do have a '75 D10 that plays and sounds very close to the new one's, but it weighs a whole lot more.

| My favorite is definitely the new Rains. Plays as close to perfect as I've ever had for a guitar. The upgrade that was added to the Rains is the difference. Only thing better would be to have another one in a different color which I will later on. If I wasn't playing a Rains, I'd more than likely go with a GFI with 10-1's. Of course, I also like the G2's by Mullen. |

I'd rather have my Williams than a platinum-plated Cadillac!

Both of my Franklins are great, but this one is my favorite.
