Breedlove knows how to do a sunburst finish. This is apparent in the AC25/SF, Plus. With flamed maple sides/back, the sunburst finish complements the wood's grain pattern; yet for the most part, the solid flamed maple is clearly visible in the guitar's back.
The top is solid sitka spruce and, like the back, the sunburst finish complements the wood well, although because of the bridge and soundhole, not as much of the center section is seen.
The AC25/SF, Plus has a harp-like sound to it, and as a result of the concert body and flamed maple back/sides, a well-balanced sound with clear string distinction.
The AC25/SF Plus [http://www.macnichol.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=MGAM&Product_Code=AC25_SF_PLUS_BURST&Category_Code=Concert_Body] comes equipped with Fishman Classic 4t electronics, which includes a built-in chromatic tuner for easy tuning. Features include abalone rosette, ivoroid binding, micarta nut and saddle, rosewood fingerboard, bridge, and headstock overlay, and gold Grover tuners. The guitar also comes with a hardshell case to ensure that the instrument is well protected.
Breedlove's technology is quite different from that of other guitar companies, resulting in a significant tone difference. Some of the major differences:
-JLD bridge truss
Here's what Breedlove states:
"Since 1990 Breedlove Guitar Co. has been using a unique device in our guitars that has allowed us to brace our tops in a very progressive way, concentrating primarily on the top's acoustic properties. There is a synergy that results from a graduated top thickness, balanced scalloped bracing, a pinless bridge, and the JLD Bridge Truss System. This has given our guitars their own distinctive sound, one that is highly dynamic, bringing out a "piano like bass" that results in a remarkably well-balanced tone for application in a broad variety of musical styles.
On our six string and twelve string guitars we use the JLD Bridge Truss system as a key component in the bracing of the guitars. This cantilevered truss counterbalances the string tension to create a relaxed top and guarantees structural integrity of our steel string guitars. A relaxed top maximizes wavelength response."
-Pinless bridges - reduces the number of holes drilled in the guitar's top.
-Headstock - the headstock is arranged so that the bass guitar's string line is straight from the bridge to the tuning head.
These all add up to a significant tone difference and set Breedlove's apart from other guitars.

Abalone $24.99 How do you create a game that has sold over 4 million copies in 30 different countries? Easy, just make it a game that anyone can learn in one minute, but that may take a lifetime to master. Loosely based on sumo wrestling, the point of Abalone is to push just 6 of your opponents 14 marbles off of the playing surface, but there is a catch. It takes two marbles to move one, and three to move two. Simple? Yes. Simplistic? By no means! The six directions of movement allow for infinite strategies both offensively and defensively. For 2 players. Type: Board Games Gender: Unisex Age: Child,Teen,Adult |
