Sustainable and Clear Cut Free

Made from sustainably sourced exotic and native tonewoods. No clear-cut trees are used in these instruments. Breedlove uses salvaged and individually harvested timber and has deep relationships with responsible suppliers around the globe. As a move towards sustainability across all lines, owner Tom Bedell has visited 15 countries to discover exactly where the wood comes from, how it is selected and harvested, and how this affects the wildlife, the community, the forest, and the planet.

Versatile Play Style

The Breedlove Play Style system was created to help you, the player, select your sound and playing style. Finding the most appropriate guitar to fit your sound requires finding not only the correct body shape but also the proper tonewood combinations to fit your style of play. Each Breedlove guitar is designed for a specific play style and sound, the Play Style systems assign a playing style icon to each instrument. Versatile Play, Multiple Styles: Breedlove crafts most guitars with a versatile all-purpose sound that feels well balanced between strumming and fingerstyle play.

Concert Body Shape

The Concert is the most popular body shape, favored by players because it is well-balanced, compact, comfortable to play, and offers all the qualities of a great-sounding guitar. It generates a wonderfully articulate range of tone with an ample low end that is never boomy but always felt. The concert works well when fingerstyle, as vocal accompaniment, or at a full strum.

Cascade Bracing For Custom Shop Sound

Conceived in the shadow of the Cascade Mountain Range, Breedlove’s Cascade Bracing delivers pinnacle acoustic sound and American ingenuity in guitars for everyone. Every USA-made Breedlove guitar gets hand-voiced by one of the builders in Bend, Oregon. These craftspeople achieve sonic perfection by meticulously shaping each instrument’s internal bracing. But, they are not just artists and artisans, they are guitar geeks. They keep meticulous records-every refinement, every change, and every delicate curl of wood off the chisel gets logged in the database. They used all that combined knowledge and experience to answer a simple question: How can they make the accessible, production guitars sound even closer to the showpieces from the Custom Shop? The answer is cascade bracing.

Guitar Portrait

Breedlove is pleased to present these very detailed specifications for your 2022 acoustic guitar. In addition to dimensions, they have listed every piece of wood in this model: its common name, scientific name, and country where the tree grew. The Breedlove uses no clear-cut wood. The Breedlove either salvages dead trees or individually harvests them to minimize the impact on the forest. You can travel globally with your Breedlove worry-free. No permits are needed. That said, it might be helpful to have this information on hand if you are traveling internationally. The Breedlove suggests printing out this information and carrying it with your guitar to avoid any misunderstandings or time-consuming waits with border customs officials.

Real Solid Tonewoods for Superior Sound

No Richlite or resin-impregnated softwoods, no glue-heavy plywoods: just solid, real tonewoods for real tone.

European Spruce

As a guitar top, European spruce is powerful like Adirondack, clear like Sitka, and complex and responsive like Engelmann, all of which are employed in various Breedlove guitar lines. With the Organic Pro Collection years in the making, Breedlove owner Tom Bedell literally climbed a mountain to be sure that the exotic FSC-certified tonewoods used in the assortment are harvested in responsible ways that respect the earth while providing for superior tone that will last a lifetime. High in the windblown Swiss Alps, Bedell watched as European spruce trees were individually selected-each yielding many dozens of tops sets-with an eye towards keeping the old-growth stands robust for decades to come.

Indian Rosewood

The familiar scooped sound profile of a classic dreadnought comes largely from East Indian rosewood, which emphasizes round bass tones and clear trebles, leaving a valley custom made for the human voice. The same carefully sourced qualities offer presence and definition to smaller bodies, along with great dynamic range.
