Breedlove Organic Collection Signature Concertina Cutaway CE Acoustic-Electric Guitar Copper Burst

OVERVIEW


All-solid sustainably sourced tonewood acoustic-electric with torrefied top, soft cutaway and Natural Sound electronics.


The Breedlove Signature Concertina acoustic-electric cutaway boasts a luminous high-gloss finish and soft stylish cutaway that puts every fret within reach. Combined with its sustainably sourced all-solid African mahogany back and sides and torrefied European spruce top, this Breedlove is an intimate, powerful instrument. We at Musician's Friend think you'll be surprised by the small body's "aged" all-solid wood dynamics, enhanced by forward X bracing and Breedlove's Sound Optimization research. Additionally, 12-fret guitars land the bridge closer to the top's waist, making for glassy, creamy trebles and round, balanced bass. With this Breedlove Organic Collection model, you'll get a classically rich, immediately identifiable tone.
Sustainably sourced tonewood and 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. Torrefaction—essentially roasting the wood—doesn't just help you sound great, but makes the instrument easier to maintain in light of temperature and humidity changes.
Unfettered access to all frets with a soft cutaway design
The Breedlove soft cutaway design gives you smooth and comfortable access to all 18 frets on this Signature Concertina model. You'll dominate any playing situation with this one, and be able to reach every fret with the sharp-looking but soft-feeling cutaway.
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 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 Signature Concertina cutaway acoustic-electric is a winning combination for the player seeking a unique sound from responsibly harvested woods.
