Breedlove Passport accoustic NGD and ???

[BloodRose]

Hey! I was going to GC today to get an accoustic for my daughter. I had made my mind up I was going to get her a Yamaha FG730s. I figured Id have to order it as the only thing they ever have in stock is the FG700s. BUT... The had a 730, 720 and this Breedlove. I was playing the 730 and 720 back to back and trying to decide. The 730 had alot more low end like a martin but was almost muffled sounding. (Im sure it would open up in time) And the 720 was brighter but almost plunky sounding in a few spots. I looked at the wall and saw a Breedlove D200smp Passport there in the same price range and I tried it. It had a tone right in between, a slightly slinkier feel to the strings. AND, 3 features I prefer. Pinless bridge, strap button mounted in the heel and came with a gig bag.
I bought it for my daughter. (Ill try to get pics up in a day or two, was late for work today cuz of guitar shopping)
So, seems killer and I know Breedlove's are a great name.
My Question is: Did I make a good choice? Again, Breedloves are a good name,but the imports are pretty new as far as I know. Anyone have experience with these ?
Thanks

Well, Skyler is loving her new baby, so I guess thats what matters.. she was just concerned cuz it keeps going out of tune. I got her a stand, capo and a they tossed in a set of set of coated strings. ( not elixers) I will change em tommorrow as the strings on it are quite tarnished.

Re: Breedlove Passport accoustic NGD and ???

thanks Bro! I will tell her UFAM said that. (uncle) I put some new strings on it today. Coated D'addarios. Also lemon oiled the bridge and fretboard. They were dry. She says she loves him.. (seems odd to me cuz Im used to referring to guits as ladies.. )
I was playing this finger style thing I do after I got the guitar tuned up and she's says, can you show me that?? So I did and she was started working on it.. Im glad to see her so into it.. She's even made up some of her own songs using her sister's Aria.
