The $500 Exceptional Guitar! Like many of you who have been searching for that perfect guitar...you know...the one that looks great, plays great and sounds great...I've found that these really high quality guitars are going to end up costing at least $2000, often considerably more. And, like many of you, I have tried out all of the low-priced production guitars, looking for something that plays well and sounds pretty good for dragging around town to jam sessions and for road trips. Until recently, the kind of low-cost guitars I've been finding in the $300-$800 range have been constructed with inferior materials, exhibit mediocre craftsmanship and quality control, and play and sound like toys. That all changed when I recently discovered Blueridge Guitars, specifically the BR-140 (Sitka/Mahogany) and BR-160 (Sitka/Rosewood) dreadnaughts, which are manufactured by hand in China by very skilled craftsman using high quality solid tonewoods and distributed in the US by Saga Music located in San Francisco. |
