My wife decided she wanted to learn to play guitar. That inspired me to take my guitar out of its case for the first time in years. My dread was a bit too big for her and the action was stiff for a beginner. I spent a few weeks researching "entry-level" 000 size guitars. I kept coming back to Blueridge instruments. At a comparable price, I couldn't find any other manufacturer using these components: sitka spruce top, solid (!) sides and back, scalloped bracing, bone nut and saddle. I was a bit nervous ordering a guitar she hadn't played. But we live in the mountains, and a drive to Denver to a big guitar shop would burn an entire day and $60 in gas. I was also a little concerned since this was the first imported guitar I have ever purchased. The guitar arrived on time and was very securely packaged. It looks good online, but I was stunned at how beautiful it really is. The mother of pearl detailing on the headstock is remarkable. The 000 size was a good choice for my wife and the action was wonderfully playable, right out of the box. It is certainly easier to finger-pick and barre than my Guild. It also already has a nice mellow sound (my 25 year old Guild is still a bit bright). I ran my finger over every inch of this guitar trying to find a flaw in material or assembly. Can't find one. Is it a $3500 Martin? No. Is it a fantastic value for 1/10 the price? Oh yeah. Only problem, now I want to play her guitar more than mine.
