I definitely agree with Dave's assessment of the "favorite" guitar is the one I'm currently playing.  My "sentimental" favorite is a nod to my father's memory.  He enjoyed woodworking as a hobby, and his recent passing at the end of 2016 led me to a prototype Bourgeois OM - Soloist Limited Edition, heavily bear-clawed European spruce top with a gorgeous cocobolo back and sides.  It sounds as good or better than it looks.  Courtney Hartman of Della Mae promoted this guitar on a video to promote the official release of the 30th Anniversary LE (or at least to my spotting telltale marks on the top indicates).  

I can't help but think of him every time I pick it up to play.

Plantsman, I'm glad you asked.  We assumed the same "best and most talented luthier" but I wasn't sure.:)

Of course our very own Greg Voros :):):)

Nice 33 Gibson Barbara, and folks, a lot of nice guitars,

I'm glad you could find someone you could trust enough to return it to you. I'm afraid my old timer won't see work until I'm unable to play a guitar, but I know where it's going.
