NGGD - Breedlove

Wanted to share a "new groundhog guitar day". I posted a thread a few weeks ago whether I should buy a new Taylor 214ce-k, and ended buying a new Breedlove Oregon in Sunburst (for a few hundred dollars off street, but it was still 3x my budget). I really liked the guitar but a few days later an Oregon popped up on CL for the best price I'd ever seen on this guitar, and it was in near mint condition. Long story short, I returned the new one, picked this one up and saved myself $900. Hence new groundhog guitar day!

This one is Natural not Sunburst, and sounds slightly different but more versatile in some respects. It's less bassy and throaty but more balanced and sweeter. It's minor but the overall quality of these guitars is very consistent!

Man that's a beaut!
I really like Breedlove guitars. Great find, by the way, to save a few bucks and still get what you wanted.
Love to hear how she sounds.
Congrats & enjoy

Congrats man. The Oregon Concert is truly one of the finest sounding and playing guitars I’ve run across. You got a steal!

I got the Oregon for $750 which was a steal. The seller bought the guitar 6 months ago from GC to learn and then gave up.

Congrats! I just played a used burst at GC yesterday. Great guitar.
