I usually play songs by John Denver, America, Praise and Worship songs, and instrumental songs that I have written.

A long time ago I had a nondescript 3/4 size guitar I bought in a pawn shop in Ft. Lauderdale for 50 bucks.<br />
It was easier to stow and cheap enough that it didn't mind the abuse of boat living. After a few beers, the guitar sounded and looked more beautiful (Musical beer goggles).<br />
I think I gave it to somebody who needed a guitar in Antigua.<br />
The next time I do end up on a longer passage, I would consider one of those <a href="http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Martin-?sku=512394">Martin…</a>

A guy was playing one of those Martins with a sound hole pickup at a cafe jam and it sounded awesome. (Yes, more beer goggles... :)<br />
Anyone play one of those Martin Backpackers or Washburn Rovers? OUCH!!!tag:seaknots.ning.com,2008-08-04:900123:Comment:288672008-08-04T22:04:49.225ZPetehttps://seaknots.ning.com/profile/Pete

Soft-side gig bag. That's when I bother putting it in a bag. My guitar is useless if it's not handy. But then, again, my previous guitar exploded in the settee when I left her aboard during the week and the high temperature melted the glue that holds the bridge in place...
