I loved all the Breedloves I have sat down with. I can't remember if I played this one though.

I have the ac25/sr plus...same guitar structurally, just differnet inlays. Anyway, I bought this guitar this summer (July) and I love it. It's not quite as loud as my dreadnaught, but I guess that's to be expected. I think that it has a great balanced tone with a surprisingly strong low end (better than I thought it was going to be). I really like the playability of the guitar, which I feel is very similar to the ease and playability of Taylors. Personally, I feel that this guitar is easier to play than many of the Martins I have tried. As far as the electronics...eh, they're ok. If I had my choice, I would have rather installed my own, but that wasn't an option. The quality and construction is absolutely flawless. There is no glue run out, the finish is smooth and clean, and the overall construction is solid. I like the fact that this guitar has some weight to it. Not that it's overly heavy, but it certainly feels solid. Hope this little review helped. Let me know if you have any other questions. Here is the link to my post after I first opened up the box.

Looks like a nice guitar.

Depending on the style you play, you might consider something without the cut away...

Good luck man and do post some pics when you get it! :)
