She sits in my lap like a kitten. Tight waist is a perfect fit. The highs are smooth and silky with no buzz or twang and the lows can offer a soft, passionate rumble that can really growl when the levee breaks. Everything in between is what you expect to hear from a high end acoustic. It can sing like it was built to play everything from Ashokan Farewell to Samba Pa Ti and Moondance. It simply draws passion from a player like a lover. Love the mahogony and cedar. The 000 is a cowboy/Portugese by way of a Hawaiin type guitar. It fits your body whether you are riding a horse, rocking in a chair or in the lotus on the floor. To me, it is everything a quality, tone wood work of art shoud possess. It fits like a body glove, slotted headboard, ringing cedar, warm mahogony. Plug it in. You won't hear any buzz, hum, crack, pop......nothing but warm tone wood ecohing thru a wooden cave resulting in a natural albeit slight reverb. I have three high end acoustics..........my 000 gets 80% of my aloted use. The other two get 10% each. Looks like Gene Autry and sounds like Josh Groban Use silk & steel strings. No picks, no nails - only finger pads in homage to the genius of the organic Mr. John Hurt. This instrument challenges, pushes, dares and reassures me: "we will get it right next time." It is a better instrument than I am a player. That in and of itself is inspirationally intimidating which is how i like to live my life. . On the other hand, I would love to hear a superb guitarist play my instrument. It could only serve to inspire me more. If you are not inspired, you are not playing - anything. Thank you Breedlove lutheriers iI hear your passion.
