What guitars should I pick up and play while i am there. Does anyone have advice. Right now I know I want to check out a baby Taylor and a Martin d28 and Martin d35.

I would target the following brands:

- Taylor
- Martin
- Takamine
- Breedlove
- Epiphone
- Seagull

If you can play anything that those companies make I'd recommend at least trying them. They all have pretty solid mid-price models as well.
