Breedlove Atlas Stage J350/EF Acoustic Electric Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this Breedlove from Guitar Center in Dallas. I went there to buy a Takamine Jumbo (EG523SC), which I'd been shopping for for a long time. I played the Tak, basically liked it, and then saw this Breedlove jumbo they had on the wall, deeply discounted as it had been a floor model for quite a while. As soon as I touched it I knew I was dealing with something in a different class from the Takamine. The J350 is as bright and loud as the Tak, but without being "boomy," due to its clear but deep bass tone. The neck is a little wider than my old Fender, which takes some getting used to, but I have found that the width, while challenging my grip a bit at first, also gives me more room on the fretboard.
The electronic tuner is excellent (and the guitar holds its tune very well), and the pickup is brilliant. With the blowout price, I got this guitar for $791 (plus tax) with a breedlove hard case. I could not be more pleased with the deal. I have been in there since and played a Taylor worth $2200 and could not say it had a fuller or clearer sound than my J350. You will not be disappointed. If I had more money, I would certainly have paid it for this guitar; as it is I consider myself lucky to have found one in my modest price range!
