Blueridge BR180 Review

History:

Purchase: www.guitarsearcher.com second guitar $849 with case, free shipping

Pros: Gorgeous looks, nice details like Abalone position markers, Mother-of-pearl and abalone design on peghead. Great feel and sound.



Cons: Not much, this guitar is becoming my favorite in my collection.

BR180 Quality: Select solid Sitka Spruce top with hand-carved parabolic top braces in authentic prewar forward X-pattern Abalone border and sound hole rosette Premium solid East Indian Rosewood back and sides with abalone pearl on all borders Premium ebony fingerboard and bridge Abalone position markers on fingerboard Delicate marquetry center strip on back Kluson style enclosed tuners with “butterbean” buttons — richly gold plated Nut and saddle are made from bone Full D-45 style ornamentation

Blueridge Summary: I would rec. the BR180 to anyone looking for a nicely made acoustic under $1000. The guitar plays and looks like it would cost more than $850.
