Two Breedlove Mandolins - Great Deal!

Post by alespa »

I just wanted to pass along a great opportunity for anyone looking for a brand new Breedlove mandolin for half price. I was at a local small guitar shop in Renton, WA USA and they told me of the 3 or 4 brand new Breedloves they have, they are blowing them out the doors. It seems they will not carry that brand anymore. I believe the three I saw were all Quartz models: two in natural finish, one with a dark brown edge, and the third was the black model with gold tailpiece. I believe they are normally priced from about $960-1600. They come with the hard shell case. So you can get a nice Quartz for about $500 . . .

Only reason I'm not buying is because I just started to learn to play and I don't have the piggy bank for one of these. PM me for details if you are interested. This is no scam, and I don't get anything for it, only the enjoyment of hopefully helping a fellow CFer get a nice mandolin at a great price!

Too bad I just bought a Casey Burns Boxwood Pratten, otherwise I might have some cash to put on one of these.

Thanks, I have done so and replied to you in kind.

P.S. For anyone who's interested, the least expensive Breedlove at the dealer alespa mentioned is $665.

I wonder if they're figuring half off, then adding the case on top of that? Oh well. Still a good deal I suppose.

I just came from the shop that's blowing all their Breedloves out the door. They still have two mandolins left . . .

Quartz - The Spirit for $999.50 . . .

and a KF Quartz - Black Gold for $1,199.50
http://www.breedloveguitars.com/product ... index.html

They are brand new, and The Spirit has a piezo pickup. Pretty cool. At this price, it's a great investment. Like I said, I don't get anything on this [unless you want to buy both and sell one to me for half of half off :)] other than the satisfaction of helping someone get a nice instrument at a great price. I doubt you can find a price this good on ebay for a brand new instrument.

Here's the direct link . . .

A Sharp is a very good store. I bought my Baby Taylor guitar from them a while back, and I've always been pleased with their service.
