I tend to play my guitars in a quasi rotation. A week or so ago, I picked up my L'arrivee and after a few strums, it sounded good. 20 mins later it sounded brilliant. I thought it was mostly down to not having played it for some time.
This week I looked at what was to be played and chose my Avalon Ard Ri, It is spruce on walnut and always used to sound a bit warm and muted. I put that down to it taking an awfully long time to come to full tone. However, this time after initial settling down it rings like a bell - and I've done nothing since I last played it.
I got to thinking (always a bad idea, I know) and thought about my other guitars. They all sound better at the moment. Is it just that it's summer or is there something else going on? 'Cos if there is, I'd like to know so I can strive to optimise the tone on all my guitars.

But for me whether my guitar good or bad is often down to my mood at the time, nothing to do with instrument.
