Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've had several 12s over the years, but I've always been disappointed... not this time. AJ350..Where have you been all my life? I've hated broken G octaves, bad action at fret 12+ and overall lack of depth and balance in the bass and midrange... that being said:
WOW! Nice guitar! Just unboxed it and tuned it up... has the lowest action I've ever seen for a factory run guitar. Sticker inside said guitar had been setup once it got in from Korea. Great job! String height across the entire fretboard TO THE SOUNDHOLE was 2/32! Nice.... very nice.
Something else (big deal for me) - I had grown so tired of breaking G octave strings on pin based bridges that I had almost given up and permanently kept my former 12 string tuned to D to avoid breakage. Three cheers for Breedlove's pinless bridge - the G octave walked right up to full concert pitch with narry a wimper! YEAH!!!
I can't wait to hook this guitar into our church's audio system to hear the LR Baggs pickup. It includes a really sweet tuner you'll enjoy.
Lastly... If you think Dreadnot 12s sound anemic.... you're right. The first time you strum this guitar you hear the immediate effect of jumbo architecture - you've finally got the bass and "grunt" you've always wanted in a 12. The sound from this guitar is VERY balanced and gives you everything you've always missed in smaller body 12s.
Icing on the cake includes: abalone binding, flamed maple on sides and back, Grover tuners and it comes with its own case - yep! You don't have to buy one after you get it! Nice....
Get this guitar. You won't be disappointed.
