The first three because they are phenomenal for the outlay and the last one because they are phenomenal, period!
I've been around their factory and the attention to detail they put in to everything is impeccable.
I like old tokai and yamaha guitars .
And Reverend for a newcomer building a reputation - especially as they've been striking out in new directions with original designs and features like their bass contour control. They've also managed the Eastern production line arrangement well, with all instruments getting a final fettling in the USA.
Dingwall was a very good shout earlier in the thread.

Many guitars have a re-sale value. Some you'll never want to sell.

I like the look of some Yamahas, and own an SGV800, yet I never managed to bond with it in the same way that I take to Fenders. It's hard to put my finger on it, as it's not like the SGV is bad in any way, but it's just not "me". None of the other Yamahas I've tried made me feel any better about them.
The Ibanez guitars I've played have been pretty damn good, but they don't really make anything to my tastes any more. I keep having a hankering for a Sonic Blue Blazer, mainly because that's my "one that got away" guitar. I do wonder whether I'd like it now, though.
I've only played the one Taylor, a 914, which was shockingly bad. I know of one luthier whose bread and butter work is repairing splits in Taylors, which doesn't exactly fill me with hope.
The Martins I've tried have been around 50/50 great/awful.
The British craftsmen I see on here make some jaw-droppingly exquisite guitars, but always seem to make the kinds of guitar that aren't for me. Can you even get a British-made, Fender-style Offset?
I said maybe.....
Just don't go into into a Felinebird X period afterwards ... and fit all Lions with robot tuners ...

Yeah - the reading count for MiUK is pretty poor
His guitars have, long with the likes of Nik Huber and Tom Anderson. The best build quality I've ever seen. But with the stunning quality theres still bags of character. Not sterile at all.
