Default Blueridge Entry Level?

Hi, Heard quite a bit about Blueridge guitars, looked at the Saga site but see they are all $500+. Simple question is that the low-end or am I overlooking something? Just curious what the beginner / entry level model would be....thanks in advance!

Hi. You're on the right track but looking at the wrong site for pricing. Saga posts the MSRP, which is usually quite a bit off from what you'd actually pay on the street/at a store/online. You can get a very good entry level BR-63 (rosewood) or 43 (mahogany) or -40 (mahogany dread) for under $500, and for slightly more (possibly even less, depending on the store and deal), you can get a sweet, all solid 140,160, 143/163, etc.

Are you looking for mahogany or rosewood? Dreadnought? Slope shoulder? Smaller body? No matter your style or desired body size, I've never met a Blueridge that didn't sound spectacular. Good luck!

Look for actual prices here

Both the br-40 and br-43 are great entry level guitars

Default Blueridge BR40-43 vs. Breedlove D200

Hey guys, so I've had my eye on the Breedlove D200, any suggestions on how the BR40, 41,42,or 43 would compare?
