My newest addition a Passport OM/MME

Post by daveTN on Tue Jun 14, 2011 4:47 pm

I traded my Epiphone PR-350 S/R for this sweet OM size Breedlove. Here it is along side the N200/CMP...and some GONBOP bongos

Alright; looks nice. I've tried Passports in stores, & think they're good travel guitars.

Nice. I've never played that model Breedlove. I prefer OM size guitars, though. I did have a Martin 000-17S (all mahogany) for about a year but never quite bonded with it. I think it should have had a deeper body, or something, because it decayed a little too quickly for my taste. None of the stores around me stock much Breedlove inventory, sadly.

My bad , I guess; The breed powers that be keep changing things on me. Used to be, Passport meant small, travel guitars that performed as real guitar guitars. I guess I didn't catch the OM designation; that is a great size.

I'm hoping it ages nicely...the OM size is new for me...I think lately PASSPORT is the designation for BREEDLOVE'S entry level guitars...those "travel" guitars are in this group as well...PASSPORT is a "price point" of sorts...

Very nice Dave. I also like to feel of an OM. I have a Martin OMC. It works well for fingerstyle. Good luck with yours.
