Designing Dreams: Breedlove Custom Guitars Featured at Sweetwater

What happens when craftsmanship, sustainability, and a passion for personal expression come together in one guitar? Sweetwater’s latest feature with Breedlove Guitars offers a behind-the-scenes look at exactly that—and the result is nothing short of inspiring.

In this exclusive video, Mitch Gallagher sits down with Angela Christensen and Tom Bedell of Breedlove Guitars, alongside Sweetwater’s own Kerry McKay, to explore the story behind Breedlove’s custom instruments. From selecting responsibly sourced tonewoods to the intimate sound optimization process, the conversation dives deep into how Breedlove helps players bring their dream guitars to life.

Angela shares insights into wood selection—highlighting reclaimed Brazilian rosewood and Oregon Myrtlewood—while Tom explains the careful balance of sustainability and sonic precision that defines each custom build. Kerry even walks us through his own personal guitar journey, which included designing a one-of-a-kind instrument featuring his family crest and reclaimed church wood that echoes his home.

Whether you’re drawn to the rich tones of rare woods, the artistry of inlay work, or the promise of a truly personal guitar, this video is a must-watch.
