Breedlove Organic Collection Wildwood Concerto Cutaway CE Acoustic-Electric Guitar Natural

OVERVIEW


All-solid mahogany acoustic-electric cutaway Concerto with Breedlove Natural Sound electronics.




They say go big or go home, so we at Musician's Friend say go big with the Breedlove Wildwood Concerto acoustic-electric. This Breedlove Organic Collection model mounts all-solid sustainably sourced African mahogany on Breedlove's largest body platform. Sonically, it’s definitely going big, with all the power and dynamic range of a dreadnought. The classic warmth of a mahogany top puts more midrange into the "scooped" frequency range so familiar with iconic bluegrass guitars. With Breedlove's Natural Sound electronics and a soft cutaway, every note is within reach with the Wildwood Concerto model.
Tonewood that's sustainably sourced
At Musician's Friend, we love that no clear-cut woods are used in the Breedlove Organic Collection. To collect the mahogany that makes up this guitar, the Breedlove team ventured to the source—the African Congo River Basin, the world's second-largest rainforest. Mahogany has a dry, warm timbre with a midrange presence that recording engineers love, whether miked up or coming through Breedlove's clean, easy-to-use Natural Sound electronics.
Soft cutaway and large Concerto shape
Players who favor the classic dreadnought acoustic-electric will enjoy the Breedlove Wildwood Concerto, the largest of the body sizes. An attractive soft cutaway adds to the modern look while bringing every note within reach.
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 sound hole-mounted controls.
The ideal 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 Wildwood Concerto is a winning combination for the player seeking a unique sound from responsibly harvested woods.

Each wood combination comes in Breedlove’s three distinctive, popular shapes—Concerto, Concert and 12-fret Concertina.
