Buffalo Trace is my standard "go-to" if the budget is a little tight, although truth be told there are few problems in life you can't solve with a handle of Maker's Mark.
Buffalo Trace or Knob Creek on the pricey end, though I also keep a bottle of Old Forester around, one of the more underrated bourbons out there.

Maker's Mark is my go-to bourbon. I also really like Four Roses Small Batch, and Basil Hayden.
In fact, I believe I'll go and pour myself a splash of the Maker's right now. Cheers!
Maker's Mark is good, but not at all interesting. It's the Glock 17 of Bourbons.
I'm making my way through bourbon, too, but at the moment Rowan Creek and Baker's are at the top of the list.
Rowan Creek is probably my favorite, and is relatively cheap, too.
Bulleit, Knob Creek (both regular and single barrel reserve), Four Roses Small Batch, and 1792 Ridgemont Reserve for me. I stopped buying Maker's when they started talking about watering down their product.

Another Texas bourbon to try is Ranger Creek .36 Texas bourbon whiskey is excellent.
E.H. Taylor Small Batch. For general sipping, Knobb Creek.
Bulleit isn't bad.
Knob Creek is my default in terms of price/quality ratio
Maker's Mark is my acceptable minimum.
Costco's "Kirkland Signature" is really really good for the price. It's basically Knob Creek, but at $20/liter. This is my general sipping bourbon.
As for the high end, I'm a huge fan of Basil Hayden's. That's an excellent bourbon.
