The Breedlove Passport Series D250/SB creates a well-rounded sound, capturing the essence of the low notes in the solidly-constructed body and allowing the higher notes to float through the soundhole.
The neck is attached well to the body and the whole guitar feels like one piece of wood. This may be due, in part, to the Double-Acting Truss Rod technology that Breedlove used in this guitar. It keeps vibrations and soundwaves moving efficiently throughout the body of your Breedlove guitar.
Also, this particular guitar embodies a lot of aesthetic beauty, especially for it's affordable price! The grains in the sides and back of the D250/SB have a subtle pop from the finish they used. Also, the head has a shape unique to Breedlove Guitars.


The Passport Series D250/SB is a well-crafted and reliable instrument that produces a good sound. If you want to purchase a good electric acoustic guitar but you don't want to spend more than $1,000, this guitar is a GREAT option!
