Default Breedlove DR Revival Deluxe string spacing

Does anyone know the string spacing at the saddle for a Breedlove Revival Deluxe dreadnought?

Almost every American made model of Breedlove uses 2 1/4 string spacing at the saddle. I've owned three or four different models at one time or another.

Matt,

I have a DR Revival. I'm not certain how to measure the string spacing though? Is it from the center of each string or some other way? I'm happy to measure but want to ensure I do it correctly for you.

A simple goole search turned up a reverb ad for a DR revival and they list the string spacing at 2 1/4.

Thanks, folks. That's good news. I prefer 2 1/4 spacing.

Thanks for offering, Grant. It looks like the spacing is 2 1/4. No need to measure it for me.

By the way, I always measure it from center of high e to center of low E, right at the saddle, but in a straight line perpendicular to the strings.
