Mahogany back & sides
Simple, supple and naturally beautiful, mahogany is one the world’s enduring tonewoods. The sustainably sourced, individually harvested African mahogany in the Organic Collection grows tall and straight grained in the Congo Basin, the world’s second largest rainforest.
It provides warmth, clarity and organ-like sustain behind the ‘vintage’ played-in tone of a torrefied European spruce top—a classic, trusted combination, that, in a traditional non-cutaway concert body just rings, making for a comfortable, easy-playing and versatile all solid wood guitar at a revolutionary price.
Torrefied European SpruceA torrefied European spruce top brings an ‘aged’ sound found only in guitars decades old and makes for a supremely playable, nimble and versatile all solid wood global guitar at a revolutionary price.
Supporting the Amazon Conservation TeamRoyalties support the Amazon Conservation Team, which works in partnership with indigenous colleagues to protect rainforests and traditional culture.
Concert Body ShapeThe Concert, Breedlove’s most popular body shape—designed 30 years ago and still going strong—is favored by discerning players for its versatile, balanced, articulate sound and its easy playing ergonomic comfort. This flagship platform performs equally well strummed or fingerpicked and is perfectly poised for accompanying the human voice.
Clear-cut free & sustainableNo clear-cut woods are used in the Designed in Bend Organic Collections from Breedlove. Owner Tom Bedell has traveled to the world’s key rainforests to personally ensure the responsible harvest practices that result in these forward-looking, light, resonant guitars—instruments you can feel good about playing, that will remind you with every strum that we truly are “All in this Together.”
