Breedlove Organic Collection Artista Concertina Cutaway CE Acoustic-Electric Guitar Natural Shadow Burst

OVERVIEW


All-solid myrtlewood acoustic-electric with torrefied European spruce top, soft cutaway and Natural Sound electronics.



Solid Oregon myrtlewood with a torrefied European spruce top distinguish the beautiful look, comfortable feel and incredible sound of the Breedlove Artista Concert cutaway CE acoustic-electric guitar. This Breedlove Organic Collection model places a luxury instrument in your lap at what we here at Musician's Friend would say is an astoundingly affordable price. Long considered a fingerpicker's dream, Breedlove's flagship Concert body shape has revealed itself to be responsive, dynamic and malleable across many playing styles.
Oregon myrtlewood that's sustainably sourced with a torrefied top
At Musician's Friend, we love that no clear-cut woods are used in the Breedlove Organic Collection, only sustainably sourced all-solid FSC Certified exotic tonewoods and native myrtlewood. But we're even more impressed with the sound. The "aged" power of torrefied European spruce tops is every bit the match for high-end U.S. models. Oregon myrtlewood works beautifully against torrefied spruce, especially in the Breedlove Artista Concert acoustic-electric.
Unfettered access to all frets with a soft cutaway design
The Breedlove soft cutaway design gives you smooth and comfortable access to all 20 frets on this Artista Concert acoustic-electric. With its soft cutaway and fast neck, this model puts you directly in touch with your muse. Its sheer visual charisma makes it hard to put down.
Optimized for sound and built for performance
Breedlove Natural Sound electronics will help you sound better and play more by placing controls right where you need them—in the soundhole for quick, on-the-strum access. Volume and tone are easily addressed with soundhole-mounted controls.
The ideal acoustic-electric guitar for the eco-friendly player
Breedlove has made a name for itself in developing beautifully crafted instruments with a distinctive, unique sound. With the release of the Breedlove Organic Collection, Breedlove steps up their game by offering sustainably harvested all-solid acoustic-electrics at an affordable price. The Breedlove Artista Concert acoustic-electric is a winning combination for the player seeking a unique sound from responsibly harvested woods.
