Go to Guitar - Eventhough you may own several Ricks

I was just wondering for those of you that have several
Ricks and/or additional guitars for that matter, whether or not there is a
Go to Guitar for you.
I know when I have more than a couple guitars around one just seems to really be the Go To Guitar. Right now I definitely go straight for my 07' 360 JG.
What about those of you with a larger collection of Ricks or guitars -
Is there still a Go To Guitar?
Is it one of your Ricks

I have to admit my go to guitar is my '61 Gretsch Double Annie, then the 730/12L.

My go to guitar is my 330, which has been away for a while to be refinned. I'm also having one made which will likely become my go-to. Will let you know in a few months.
For what I have right now, my 381 would be it.
Basses? No question, my v68, my go-to bass for almost six years running!

I probably grab for my Tacoma C1C Chief acoustic/electric more than anything else.
Main electric will ALWAYS be my Ric 1997SPC/VB. Always.

My "go-to" guitar is a '64 National Glenwood 99, but I
have been giving my 381/12BBR quite a work out.

My 'go to' guitar is a Fender Strat because it's always handy.
My 'go to' Rick is my 350v63MB.

I always find this question difficult to answer. My acoustic "go to" is usually the 700C FG. Electric is either my '60 360 Capri or '60 345F.

As far as "go to" if I were a gigging musician I'd be performing with my 350V63. Since I'm currently not and I don't care to leave it out on the stand I grab my Epiphone Dot because it's handy and fun to play. I know there's no real comparison between the two what with humbuckers vs. single coils and all, but what I need most is practice and the Dot is ready to go at any time of day or night.

My go to at home to work out chords, etc. is my Baby Taylor because it's handy. My go to gigging guitar has been my 87 American Standard Strat, but lately my Ric 660 has been getting at least one set worth of the gig.

In my home, it's my Les Paul Classic if not my 06 360. For the band I am in it's the Rick 360 by far. The 660 comes in third but looks the best in AMF.
