Comments about Blueridge Prewar Series BR-240A Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar:
After a few years of research I found the guitar I wanted. Thanks Blueridge and Musician's Friend. When I started playing acoustics I couldn't tell flamed maple from rosewood or a dreadnaught from a parlor style. After trying them all I have chosen this one. I like mahogany for the tone and this one is solid SELECT mahogany, two good words for guitar wood. I like spruce tops for the clarity and projection and this one is a beautiful Adirondack spruce, a prized wood. I like a little more room on the fingerboard and this one has a wider nut. I like fancy without too gaudy and this one has a very nice headstock inlay. Mostly I like a guitar that frets and plays easily and really projects sound with warmth and authority; this is the one for me. I agonized over selling my high end Martin and getting a foreign made guitar, but this instrument is the end result of getting past advice and prejudice and experimentation and getting all the things I want in a guitar. Good luck in your search.

Comments about Blueridge Prewar Series BR-240A Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar:
I hate when snobbs say this is a good guitar for the money. This is a great guitar and is worth as much as any guitar out there. I have owned guitars costing thousands and they were not a bit better sounding and this one plays better.
