Sometime in the late 90s I took a guitar-playing friend to a music store and made him play every guitar in the bargain bin. I was planning to spend $100 but I went home with an FG335 for $50, because he said it was the best thing on the rack.
I played it forever, but it's been untouched for 5 or so years, as I mostly play 12 string these days.
Broke it out the other night. The frets are worn and the intonation is atrocious, but it sounds wonderful.
I'll never be able to compare it to guitars that cost more than a car (because I don't want to be That Guy who has guitars that cost more than a car), but it is clearly my best guitar when your rate them by dividing cost by sound!
