High End Affordability
I'll be honest, I feel that I took a chance on this instrument, even at it's insanely low price tag. I've always been one to purchase only after playing the guitar myself, but something about this one just spoke to me, and the reputation of the company is outstanding so I gave it a shot. The verdict: it stacks up incredibly well against some of the much higher end instruments in… read more my collection. (I have a Taylor 214, Martin D28, 1979 Les Paul, etc etc... All much more expensive than this Breedlove). The Rainforest has a smooth, vibrant tone that's clean and crisp on the mids and graceful on the highs (I use Ernie Ball Earthwood light gauge strings). The finish is simply GORGEOUS, and the satin neck is perfect for sliding smoothly across the scales. It sounds like a dream through the system at my church, too. I could swear it's cleaner even than my Martin, though that could be due to my simple infatuation with the guitar at present. Conclusion: I'm incredibly happy with the purchase, with Andy Scheer at Sweetwater (he was outstanding in his assistance after there was an issue with payment processing), and with the instrument itself. The Breedlove line is something special, indeed.
