First off, I want to apologize if this really would have gone much better in the previous topic I had made, concerning the Martins that I'd been looking at. I felt that this would get a better response, as well as since this is also concerning a completely different company that I've taken a look at. If it be the case that this topic be better left un-made, I do apologize in advance.
I have seen Breedlove guitars before, and I've been interested in them. By that, I mean I really liked how they looked. I never thought much of them recently since I intend on getting my next guitar out of a shop, not online. I wasn't aware of any shops in the area that carried Breedlove, that should make the last statement more clear. But it was recently brought to my attention that there is a shop with in an hours drive that happens to regularly carry Breedlove guitars.
I'm curious if anyone has any experience with them. Due to cost, I may still be looking at the Atlas series primarily. I'm still quite open to using any body style, but due to my history I am quite partial to the Concert styled bodies though. Sorry again for so many questions about guitars, but I really would like to have an idea ahead of time.
NOTE: Also, this is part of the fact that I'll be getting my job soon, an old job I had. With school ending soon I'll probably have enough money for the guitar after 3 to 4 paychecks, which is about 2 months worth of work. Hence the rush.

Just last Sunday at an acoustic guitar society meeting I played a Breedlove one of the guys had bought. It was a pretty good guitar, more like say a Taylor than a Gibson in the way it felt and sounded. It was not a large size guitar. I don't know what model it was, but my friend said "It isn't one of the expensive Breedloves." I know it was quite a bit less than a thousand. He said he planned to use it for solo gigging and liked its on-board electronics (which I didn't hear because the society's only rule about music played at meetings is "no plugging in."
)

i was tinkering around on a breedlove 12 string a few days ago at guitarcenter . sounded really nice, esp. since it was going for around $800... too bad my poor-ass budget at the moment is under 600 buckaroos
they're really nice sounding and seem like great bang for your buck though, if ya got it that is...

I own a AD25/SR Plus, (The ad 25/sr plus). I love mine. Though it was the higher end model for that series about 1k (dollars). Anyway, it plays really nice, it has decent electronics, and sound good plugged in too. If you have more questions just pm me and I will give you more info, and answer any questions that you have about the guitar, and Breedlove in general.
