I got a Breedlove American Series C25/SSE a few weeks ago to be my second guitar / alternate tuning guitar. I got it fairly cheap as it was a used guitar.
The sound is completely different than my 814ce and even pretty different than the 314ce I used to own (which is the same wood pairing). However, I really love how it plays (it's actually very similar than playing on a Taylor) and I love the sound. I'd really advise you to aim for an American Series for a little more $$ if you can. I could see a difference for sure.
