Breedlove Pursuit nylon stringers
Hi,
I came across a video of someone playing a Breedlove nylon stringer and discovered their Pursuit series which has a relatively cheap entry-level model that looks interesting (redwood top, lam. hog B&S). These probably don't qualify as classical guitars based on their shape and possibly bracing (which I can't seem to find any info about), but (how) would they work for classical repertoire? https://breedlovemusic.com/instrumen...eciality/nylon Anyone here who has one? There aren't many recordings on YouTube that demo their unplugged acoustic voice in classical-like playing, so I'd be interested in samples of that as well. I'm assuming the more expensive "exotic" model with a lam. myrtlewood back doesn't sound significantly different? (From what I read the laminate uses a hog centre layer.) I'm intrigued by their "bridge truss" system. I can see why they add it, but have to wonder if it doesn't alter the acoustic voice by added weight and restraining vibration transfer, which would be more problematic with nylon strings than with steel strings. (Annoyingly they're impossible to find here in France, esp. for their actual "street value".) |
