Hi,

My first guitar was a used Breedlove AC25/CM Plus, which was a beautiful guitar--solid top and back/laminate sides. It was a great guitar, but I knew I wanted something that could be played in a setting with banjos and mandolins and also have some presence, so I sold it and purchased another guitar. The Breedlove was mellow, articulate, and well suited to fingerstyle, but the string spacing was a bit cramped. Regardless, the build quality of my guitar was very good--just as good as a similar Martin or Taylor models. Aside from the string spacing issue, the playability for me was great (the neck was slim, like a Taylor). I am not sure what the Revival series sounds like, but mine had a more modern sound, similar to Taylor.

If you can, try before you buy. Buying used is also the best way to get the most for your money. Breedloves don't have the best resale value.

Good luck with your search.
