Default NGD - Breedlove Revival OMR Deluxe

New-To-Me-Guitar-Day!

I drove the 2 hours to see the guitar, in sunshine, rain, sleet and snow.
The sellers photos make it look a little pale, compared with reality. It is pretty in a slightly quirky way.
It has highs, lows, richness, and a surprising amount of depth for a guitar that isn't all that large.
Neck dimensions (mainly nut width) and the overall feel are different from what I've mainly played for years, so it will take a while before I can play it properly.

Let's see if I can manage something on Sunday. My photo abilities are less than stellar, though.

Got some pics with my old phone.... It makes the rosewood and mahogany look all yellow, and the top doesn't look right either. Could be the indoor lighting. It is too cold outside to take a nice wooden guitar there.

I have a 2011 OM/SReH exactly like the one in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vuTjqJuCVxQ
The label states "American Series" (not Revival) signed by Kim Breedlove.

A buddy recently picked up a used 12 fret 000 exactly like the one in this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QJDfr8iGug
The label does state "Revival Series" (not American) signed by Jayson Bowerman.

Both are outstanding examples of all solid Breedloves of traditional (Martin-like) designs.

I've been unable to definitively ascertain the difference(s) between American vs. Revival other than the signatures.
