Dean Tradition S2 Solid Top Dreadnaught Acoustic Guitar, Gloss Natural Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have to preface this review with a comment on Amazon. At first, I was very upset when my guitar arrived, as it was a left-handed model, when I had ordered a right hand version. Amazon was great, sending out my replacement righty guitar NEXT DAY FedEx! I had barely sent back the left hand model when the righty arrived at my door step. Fantastic customer service from Amazon!Product: Dean Tradition S2, Gloss Natural
Price Paid: $110 (usually sells here for $225)
Sound: Sounds great! I was expecting a slight step up from other entry level guitars, but this sounds way better than I had figured it would. Very full deep sound from the solid spruce top.
Action/Playability: Very easy to play. It has taken me a few soungs to get used to the scale, as I had been using my daughters Jr. sized guitar, but once that was done, I have had no problems. The neck is straight and true, and the action is good.
Craftsmanship/Reliability: Very beautiful guitar. The tortoise binding gives this guitar an extra bit of class, and the wood is beautiful. As to reliability - I've only had it a short time, but it seems very solid.
Overall Rating: Five stars. I was hoping to get a nicer guitar than is typically available in my budget (I was planning to spend ~$125), and the sale on this Dean was just what I was looking for. Most in the lower price range are typically poorly made, or don't sound that good. Now, I can't say for sure that I would have bought this particular model if my budget had been $225, so maybe my review is a bit biased by the sale price I paid. Either way, I'm a very satisfied Amazon and Dean customer!

Blueridge BR-140 Historic Dreadnaught Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This guitar is easy to play and has a quiet fullness that's really nice when you don't want the guitar to step on the vocals. The price is coming down to more like where it belongs. The tuning keys are definitely a step above the ordinary - smooth and solid. One negative which maybe they've fixed (mine's five years old): It came with one undersized wooden shoulder-strap button, like a large string button, that fell out when the glue dried, and the hole is too large to replace it with a regular metal button. I keep meaning to re-glue the wooden button but just keep pushing it back in. What draws me most to this guitar is its soft, balanced sound.

Blueridge BR-60CE Contemporary Dreadnaught Cutaway Guitar with Fishman Classic 4T Pickup and Santos Rosewood Back & Sides. Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Received on third business day after ordering. Just out of the box the glossy Rosewood back and sides are very very impressive. It is light weight and very easy to hold and play. NO additional set-up required as far as I'am conserned. It has a loud crisp base and balanced treble sound. The bone nut and saddle give it a great sound. Action is low and easy to play. It sounds just as good through my acoustic amp. The 14:1 tuning keys hold the strings in tune and it is easy to treek the note when tuning. Would definately recommend you check this guitar out, as you may like it as well or better than guitars costing two or there times as much.
