"Breedlove Passport C250Coe"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I've owned five Breedlove guitars over the years and this one is among the best in terms of tonality, sustain, playability, and cost. The fit and finish are first rate, and rival the American series guitars. Set up from the factory is acceptable, but in my opinion almost every guitar needs tweaking after getting it home in my own environment. The action near the 12th fret is a bit high, but since I play mostly in the upper frets as a new player, it's not a major concern. I will have it adjusted later though. I played several Breedlove and other brands when I selected this one, and for the money, which for me is an issue, I don't think one can do better at or near several times the price. My only complaint is that several of my other Atlas series guitars came with hardshell cases or sturdy gig bags, and this one came with a flimsy gig bag. A hardshell case purchase down the line will be a met for me. A great product at a great price. Play several and you'll be impressed too.
