I had a new D-28 that I never fell in love with. Then I lucked into a shopworn D-41 that was 50% off the new price. It's a wonderful guitar and I can scarcely imagine buying another rosewood dreadnought.

Sonically, I like all the scalloped-brace models -- HD-28, D-41, D-42, D-45, etc. I prefer the overtones you get when strumming chords and I find it more inspiring for songwriting. If I ever bought another Martin I'd be interested in the 000-40S Mark Knopfler model. But I'd probably get a custom luthier-made guitar before I bought another Martin.
