House of Musical Traditions in Takoma Park, MD (just outside of Washington DC) is a dealer for Breedlove acoustic guitars and mandolins. Here we have Mark Sylvester, one of our teachers, demonstrating the Revival OOO-R guitar. Traditional in both design and aesthetic, Revival Series guitars capture the essence of legendary "pre-war" guitars. Timeless form, vintage aesthetics and "pre-war" X-bracing meet with Breedlove Craftsmanship in an American made, hand built guitar that represents a new benchmark for performance and value. Breedlove Revival acoustic guitars feature forward X bracing, and a graduated top thickness. Revival tops are thicker in the middle and thinner toward the perimeter, delivering a tone that is powerful and explosive, and also very balanced. All Revival models are handmade in Bend, Oregon.

The OOO-R is a 12-fret slotted headstock model featuring a Sitka Spruce top, Indian Rosewood back & sides, Ebony fingerboard & bridge, Ivoroid binding with bwb purfling, Abalone rosette, Gotoh tuners and semi-gloss finish.

List Price on this model is $2,939 and includes a hardshell case. Please contact HMT directly for discounted price and availability at hmtmail@hmtrad.com or 301-270-9090, or visit our website at www.hmtrad.com.
