Breedlove Atlas Series Solo C350/CM Concert Acoustic-Electric Guitar  

I had toyed with the idea of a this guitar and tried one out at a guitar show.  When MF ran the discount and a special price, my mind was made up.  MF surely sold a ton of these!  Mine included a hardside case that is a better case than some top end models.  They advertised it with a soft case.  The guitar exceeds all expectations.  The setup on mine was with the neck relaxed (adjustment backed completely off).  The action height was acceptable, but it was a simple and accurate adjustment of just a few parts of a turn, totaling less than 3/4 turn to end with what I like and what Breedlove says is their standard action:  1/16th" at the 14th fret for the 1st string."  The tone is very open and "woody". The cut-out feature is great in an open mike bluegrass setting where I am deaf to my own guitar.  I play lots of solo and backup riffs but had trouble picking up my feedback even with a boomy guitar.   About the only complaint I could come up with is that the back bracing could have been thinned down (scalloped) and made a little lighter.  For what I will be using it for it is perfect.  The neck appears to me very sturdy and should be stable, the neck angle is where I like it and there is lots of adjustment available for action height.  I doubt that it will be used, looking down inside at the bridge arrangement.  There is no noticeable bulge below the bridge because of the torsional force from the string tension that goes with conventional bridges.  The electronics are more than I expected performance wise, plenty of adjustments for a variety of sound systems and amplifiers.  I love the tuner.  Thank you MF and Breedlove for making this available to someone like me.    

setup ideal for simple individual adjustments, for this price excellent quality.  I have seen fret finish not this good on high end american made guitars.
