This guitar has a non-traditional but very effective bracing system. If you use sound board transducers such as B-band's AST, Macintyre Feather, or K&K Western for amplification, check carefully before you buy this guitar. They may not work due to the soundboard "post" brace.

I played a friends AD20/SM. Very nice! Got that nice dry vintage tone. Great bass from the mohahany, but not too loud.

"Breedlove Atlas Ad20/sm Ya Man !!!!"
The atlas meets all my needs for an acoustic guitar> I am a working
musician so this is serious Biz to me . I would without a doubt
gat annoyher Atlas if this one were lost. I wish I knew how Bitchen
this guitar was before I bought a yamaha compas for my son.
The part I like most about this guitar is the weight and balance
I play every day for several hours and heavy out of balance guitars
are a bear the guitar is very well balanced and light
.
Sound
The overall sound of the atlas is very good. Rich and warm. alone
the atlas sounds stellar, in a plugged in situation I installed
a martin thinline pick up I play through a Pod XT to a bbe and 15 band graphic before the board the resulting sound is BIG and RICH
for recording a good condensor mic and your in Breedlove hit a
homerun with this one.
Features
No accessories were included ( but at the price who could argue)
solid spruce top solid mahogany back ply sides. Same as martin
lower price and Way better sound ,Not shrill and thin at all
Like I said BIG and RICH
Quality
This Guitar is top quality ,I cant beleave they can produce it and
sell it for the price and make money. I play it every day and I work
as a musician three days every week The atlas is my only acoustic
( I gave my gibson Gospel model to a friend When I got the Atlas
Value
Hands down the best product value I have seen
Manufacturer Support
I have had no prior dealings with Breedlove But I look forward to
my next one
The Wow Factor
I dont usually play guitars at music stores I just fondle the neck
and if it feels good I'll try it usually the sound is disapointing
and i Move on . Not so with the Atlas BIG and RICH
