"I recently purchased your DR Revival Series guitar and it is without a doubt the best sounding acoustic guitar I have ever owned. I have had and still have a few handmade guitars, but this one will be getting all the stage time. You have hit the "traditional" sound and gone beyond. It has a rich complex tone that cuts through that really has our whole band saying, "Man, that thing sounds killer!". I have been a professional musician and teacher for most of my life and for the last 14 years with Roy Rogers, Jr. and The High Riders. We do about 500 shows per year in our own theater in Branson, MO and I am looking forward to really let this axe go on stage. I have only done a few road shows in CA and in Pigoen Forge so I haven't really put her through her paces yet. I had the LR Baggs dual element system installed and it is a superior amplification system. I see why you chose them for your guitars. I want to thank you for creating such a wonderful instrument. I am now a devoted fan and look forward to owning a few more Breedloves."

"After one year had passed since I had purchased my guitar, I have visited your factory with my family from Portland. Now I am living in Japan, I still love my Breedlove guitar, especially Myrtlewood sound. I would buy jump body with Myrtlewood if I can afford. Best guitar I ever had!!"
-Tomio Horiguchi, Tokyo Japan (Breedlove SC20)
"This is one of the prettiest sounding instruments that I've ever heard. Playing it is somewhat of a spiritual experience - sometimes I actually feel God in the beauty of the tones. Additionally, the workmanship is exceptional. Easily one of the best purchases I've ever made."
-Mark Vogel, Hinsdale, IL (Focus 12, Maple)
ATLAS SERIES
"We selected this guitar because we all agreed that the sound beat that of the Gibsons and Martins that we compared it to, and it was comparable to the Taylors priced at three times what we paid."
-Stan Hickson, Hernando Beach, FL (AC25/SR PLUS)
"This is a rare breed - it isn't often you find such a well contructed guitar priced so low. I hope the low price models such as the Atlas bring you many new and loyal customers. You made one of me. 25 years of playing and this is one of the finest guitars I have played at any price... pinch me. Am I dreaming? I guess the name say's it all - Breed-Love! I love it!. Thanks everyone!"
-Troy Graham, Collinsville, OK (AD25/SR, PLUS)
"I love it - have played for 40+years, always wanted a 12 string, walked in not looking for one, saw it, played it, bought it all on impuse and haven't regretted it one bit. Well done for an reasonably priced instrument. (I'm a fan of the $2,000+ kind of instrument)."
-Paul Briggs, Portland OR (Atlas AC250/SM-12)
"I own the cutaway atlas series guitar as well, and I find these to be suprerior in every way. I like playing them more than my Taylor 614ce! I tell everyone about the excellent value i can find. These guitars are amazing, there is nothing out there that is comprable - they play like guitars costing thousands of dollars. Very good work!
-Robert Connolly, Carlstadt, NJ (AD20/SR, PLUS)
I'm absolutely delighted with my AD20. I was planning to spend more(perhaps a Taylor, Takamine or L'Arrivee?). The AD20 sounded better than those so I bought it: simple! I like the understated looks, the easy playing neck and the slightly unusual dreadnought shape."
-Ken Holland, Devon, U.K. (AD20/SM)
"I am really pleased with my Breedlove Atlas and would have no problem recommending this guitar to my friends. The sound is wonderful and the craftsmanship is very good. My Breedlove guitar inspires me with it's wonderfully full tone, ease of play and good looks. Thank you for making such a great guitar!"
-Don Cohn
"I am the proud owner of an Atlas AD25/sm. I've had it a month now, and I'm still completely blown away with it, the sound, quality of construction and playability would be exceptional at twice the price paid."
-Kevin Gaskill (AD25/SM)
"I have to say that I am absolutely delighted with the guitar - it really is an amazing instrument. I have been a a big fan of Breedlove guitars from wayyyyyy back... I used to come to your website and drool constantly...dreaming that someday... I think the Atlas Series was a brilliant move...and I couldn't be happier to finally own a Breedlove for myself. I hope to someday be able to add a Master Class to the stable."
- Lisa Adams (AC200/SM)
"This is my first acoustic guitar, I was going to spend about a grand on a used Martin until I heard the rich tone of the Breedlove. The quality and sound of this guitar is as good, and in some cases better than the Martins I was looking at. This is truly an outstanding guitar."
-Jeffrey Leiberg, San Bernardino, CA (AD25/SM)
"I am so excited to finally get my Breedlove, it sounds fantastic and I intend to buy more. Thank you very much for your fine craftsmanship and dedication."
-Damian Vines, Bellingham, WA (AD200/SM)
"I am completely blown away by this guitar. I have been looking to buy an Epiphone masterbuilt this year. On my most recent visit to the Guitar Center the Salesman suggested that I try the Atlas series of Breedloveguitars. I spent 2 hours with a friend playing both the Ac25/Sm and the Epiphone Masterbuilt in a double blind test. No matter how many times my friend mixed up the order of which guitar was being played, the Atlas came out ahead every time. The final deciding factor was the quality and finish of the instrument and the fishman 4."
- Mark Stein, Ft Myers, FL (AC25/SM)
"I own several Martins, Ovations, Fender Tele, all American made. While I don't like buying a Korean made product, it is a fantastic value that I could not pass up. Seriously comparable to a Martin 000-28 I used to own, with a cutaway and electronics to boot!"
-Steven Karr, Albrightsville, PA (AC25/SR PLUS)
"Keep up the good work! I am so pleased with the excellent quality of the guitar, even though it is not a custom."
-Brian Day, Loveland, CO (AD25/SR PLUS)
"Great Guitar. Very happy with it. It responds well to a light touch which is the way I play. Also great for fingerstyle, unusual for 12 stringer. When amplified it has a nice low end without being boomy. Fantastic action, nice and low with no buzzing. I was also looking at a Martin at the same time I bought it. The Breedlove was considerably less expensive and superior in construction and sound quality."
-Dale Burke, New Providence, NJ (AC250/SM-12)
"I’d been shopping around for a couple of years while saving up my meager ill gotten gig gains. I’ve played a lot of guitars and I really like the look and warn tone of the Gibson SJ200. I was also drawn to the bright distinct tone and sustain of the Taylors. I was in a little guitar shop in Salt Lake City when in ran across one of yours. I’m a bit of a maverick and I was looking for something unique. When I played it my wife said the look on my face was akin to the one during…..well let’s say….more intimate moments. At risk of sounding cliché it was love at first bite, a perfect fit for my playing style. Just exactly what I was looking for."
-Scott Olsen, Tremonton, UT (AC25/SR)
"This was the absolute best sounding guitar in the entire store. It has the deepest, warmest and crisp lows and the brightest, most harmonizing highs. I have never heard and acoustic sound this incredible. It sounds better than the 10,000 Taylors and Martins, and even the vintage Gibsons. Thanks for the great piece of musical artwork!!"
-Joshua Anderson, Houston, TX (AC25/SR PLUS)
"Just wanted to drop you guys a quick line and tell you I have been playing guitar since I was 5 years old. I am 42 years old now so I have been playing guitar for 37 years, and I personally own over 12 guitars from a 1971 Fender Strat to a 1965 Gibson Les Paul. My main acoustic guitar for the past 21 years has been a 1986 special edition Ovation, but several months ago I purchased an Atlas AC25/SR Plus. Since then my Ovation went into retirement and I haven't even taken it out of the case since, because the Atlas has become my play everyday guitar. The action on this guitar is awesome, the built in tuner fabulous. Last week while I was in the studio we used my Atlas and its built in tuner to tune my strat because I had left my tuner at home because I got out of the habit of carrying a tuner since I begain playing the new Breedlove. I love the Breedlove hard shell case that I bought with the guitar as well. I just had to let you guys know your doing a great job!! So often we only take the time to call or write a company when we have an issue or problem with their product but I was so impressed with my new Breedlove I had to write and tell you how happy I am with the choice I made!! Way to go FAT CAT Guitars in Lake in the Hills, IL for getting me to sit behind a Breedlove when I was out guitar shopping!!! Keep up the great work!! Not only is it a handsome guitar to look at it is the best acoustic I have ever played!! It is not just a pretty face in the crowd - this guitar stands up and holds its own against the best of them!! Again Great job Breedlove on making an affordable acoustic guitar that ROCKS!!!"
-Wayne Rau
" I just wanted to write and show my appreaciation. I bought an AC25 PLUS today and the workmanship is fantastic! I can't put it down! It's so nice to know there still a company who puts so much pride and soul in their art."
-Monty Carrico
"I just purchased an AN250/CR Nylon from Steilberg Strings in Louisville, KY. This is truly the nicest guitar that I've ever had in my hands. I'm not a performer, so I couldn't really justify needing one of those Bossa Nova models! Anyway, just wanted to let you know how impressed I was with your guitar - really, really nice (and I am not going to say "for the money", since that's not the point). I wanted an investment guitar to pass down through my family and I just fell in love with this one. Incredible playability! Proud to say I own one."
-Charles Young, Frankfort, KY (AN250/CR)
PASSPORT SERIES
"I played 20 guitars under the $700, and I just keep coming back to your because of the clean sound and great neck feel all the way up/down the frets. I wasn't as familiar with your company but the quality and sound said "buy me please". I don't believe this model was made over seas. In the end, it was a toss-up between the Breedlove D20 and the $600 Martin...You Won!
-James Carson, Gulph Mills, PA (D20 FS)
"I have a brand new C25 Atlas that we bought at About Music in Indianapolis. It is, quite simply, the best travel guitar I have ever heard. It is a nice partner to my 1995 RD-R. Finally, a sweet-sounding guitar I can take with me everywhere I go."
-Mark Need, Indianapolis IN (Passport C25, T)

"The problem is that I don't want to put it down and go to work.
Hope this love relationship keeps going. Already looking at your 12 string guitar now. Mandolin came with a soft case and per our telephone conversation, you are to send a hardshell when they come in. That will make the transaction ideal."
