  • I prefer the Taylor...more focused sound, the Breedlove is a little too boomy for my taste..

  • I own the Breedlove and I bought it because it blew away the Taylor tonewise.

  • I own the same Breedlove as the one you demo here. It sounded drastically different than the one hanging next to it that day in GC when I bought it in Aug. 2008. It is over 4 years old now and the thing just sings. I also LOVE the way it looks. It is a desirable guitar even though I'm a purist and like simple appointments on a guitar as long as the tone is gorgeous. I prefer the Breedlove here too. I do like Taylor's high end stuff quite a bit though and have serious GAS for the 8 string Bari.

  • The Breedlove sounded like an ovation with a plastic back , no woodtone at all . The Taylor 114 is one of their cheapest guitars and it had more balance and the mids are more present . I own a Breedlove and a Taylor and an Ovation . My Taylor is better in all categories for my style , then my ovation is my second choice and I find my breed might be for sale soon . It's not for aggressive fingerstyle .

  • the breedlove sounds far better but it could just be that it has a better pickup system?

  • Whatever method of recording you used (sounds plugged-in if I had to guess), I don't believe the EQ was set well. You can kind of get an idea of what they sound like, but I don't think these recordings do justice to either guitar. Thanks for the comparison though.

  • breedlove (:

    but i might be saying tht cuz i own a breedlove myself and ima breedlove fan lol

  • Breedlove..no doubt

  • Actually I was strumming in the same place on both guitars not quite the center of the soundhole.

  • Sounds like your playing WAYYY too close to the bridge on the taylor...

  • I have the Breedlove, C25/SR, which i chose over the Taylor...

    i prefer the Breedlove!

  • I like the Breedlove better, the Taylor was way too bright.

  • I go the Taylor..the breedlove sounded like one of those old video games.

  • Thanks.  I like the Breedlove...

  • taylor = bright and great for chords strumming breedlove=deep, mellow and good for picking and folk. just my opinion

  • are you using the same type of strings on both guitars?

    In my opinion the Breedlove has a much fuller/richer tone-

    Kinda sad to say as I caught in the middle between buying a breedlove or taylor.

    I'm looking at the 615ce Jumbo taylor or a comparable Breedlove-

    No doubt though, the 114 Taylor sound tiny.

  • It's not the strings or the settings. But the 114 CE is a really cheap Taylor. The 615 is a much better Taylor. I did the recording test to find out for myself which one I liked better. Turns out I'm selling my Taylor and keeping the Breedlove after listening to the recording.

  • The breedlove sounds more to me brighter piano like.

    Did you added reberb to breedlove?

  • The effects and EQ were identical.

  • The Taylor has a more interesting sound to my ear. Both very nice guitars though.

  • i say the breedlove, sound better to my ear, taylor sounds too bright

  • I have to agree with you, but I may be a little bias as I own a Breedlove AC250-sm 12, and just like the sound they put out.

  • Nice video. I like the Taylor better - a fuller, more rounded sound than the Breedlove.
