A Guild 12 string. I've tried many others including Taylor, but there is something about the Guild that really appeals to my ear.

If I ever get a 12 String, it will without a doubt be a Guild. They make awesome guitars!

Probably a Martin 000-15m.
This is a great guitar and a real gem from Martin - also worth looking at is the 00-15M - very bluesy.

I did too. Thankfully, for once, I bought it from musicians friend so I could return it without any issues. And yes you must get two gsminis.

I'm trying to decide between a McKnight build, or a Kostal build.  I've been looking at a Stehr as well.  I love having problems like these ;)

I keep trying to vary my brands. (I have owned Martin, Gibson, Guild, Ovation, Takamine, Lowden, Santa Cruz, and I still own one Larrivee OM10K in a ddition to my four Taylors - the rest of the aforementioned guitars have been sold.) I thought that my next purchase might be a Bourgeois OM, but I keep coming back to the Taylor GA. It's just my favorite guitar, and I'd like to have one in every flavor!

I like what I like, and am perfectly contented to grow my collection of GAs of various woods. Right now, I'm thinking about a cedar or engelmann spruce pairing with a 700 grade rosewood, using my own choices for aesthetic specs.

Tough call for the next one...

The Taylor baritone instruments definitely have my attention right now.  The local shop has one, and I've enjoyed playing around with it.

However, there's a part of me that is also thinking about a Martin on which to play a little bluegrass.  I know nothing about the Martin line though, so there's a big ol' learning curve there I'd have to start getting into.

And of course, none of this takes into account some as-yet-unknown-to-me instrument that might pop up in the marketplace!

Just got off the phone. Ordered a Taylor DN-7e tobacco burst!  Saw it in "Wood and Steel". Had to have it! ;)
