By mid-level Martin do you mean like made in Mexico? Is your Breedlove one of their made in China models?

No, I mean 00-18 as opposed to 00-45. It's made in Bend.

Beautiful! Also great to know about the dealer - that’s drivable for me and looks like a good place to look at Breedloves.

I actually found them on Reverb. Was just looking at all the Bend made Concertinas. Never really liked the look of the all myrtle ones, so was just looking at everything else. Saw this and worked out a deal with the guy in a couple of messages back and forth. Glad I did.

I’m looking at hitting the submit payment button on a new L-00 Sustainable and then you post this! Wow. Beautiful wood. What to do?:-)

What a lovely little guitar!!! Congratulations!!!

I've played a LOT of Breedloves, and the ones made in Bend are just very nice guitars... but I've not played an all-walnut Concertina. All of the walnut b/s Breedloves I've played have been stellar... glad to hear that the all-walnut ones are terrific,as well!

May you play it for many thousands of hours, in both good health and circumstance!

Love the looks. I’ve had several beautiful Breedlove Guitars, but they’ve never captured me like a Martin, Gibby, or SCGC. Does the walnut get the job done tonally, ie, resembling anything else? I saw the video of it online and it maybe wasn’t as good a recording as some of the popular reviewers and possibly wasn’t a true representative of the sound of this sweet looking guitar.
