Buddy System Guitar shopping ..
Went tire kickin' yesterday with a close friend (and long time player) who was in-the-market..
I came across a semi-tucked away, near mint, mid-2000s Breedlove Revival 000 Deluxe - like this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QJDfr8iGug (of course, the audio does not do it justice) Signed by Jayson Bowerman (once a Master Luthier at Breedlove).. who is now a well respected independent builder. We did the buddy system "you play it so I can hear it" back and forth several times (like we did 22 years ago when I bought my Martin D40 and have done many times since then). A great catch. It rings and made a fine addition to his 85' HD28 and mid-2000s Collings OM. Simply a fantastic, unexpected find. While I didn't actually score ... I'll take the assist with a dash of envy. |

Nice but...
think of yourself more as enabler... just kidding... next time, it's your turn... enjoy the hunt.

So that was you.. I was there about 2 weeks ago and had looked at the Breedlove but didn’t pull the trigger. When I went back it was gone. Great guitar. Hope you get many years of enjoyment from it.

Sounds like fun. But the buddy system for buying cars is even better, at least when it's your buddy who's buying. "So what if you have four kids and a dog. Let's test drive the Corvette anyway."
