European Spruce - Myrtlewood
Artista Pro Series Concert Burnt Amber CE
Elegance exemplified. The Artista Pro Concert checks every single box. The stunning look and high energy sound of all solid Oregon myrtlewood back and sides; the classic, rich sound of a European spruce top; our fully redesigned, brand new Cascade Bracing; the arresting look of a burnt amber burst finish that radiates out from the soundboard and climbs up the back of the European maple neck—all rolled into the versatile, time-tested Breedlove Concert body. Add in an ovangkol fretboard, Delta pinless bridge, and professional caliber Fishman Flex Plus-T electronics for an eminently playable work of art. You deserve a guitar that respects your dedication, expression, and talent, without requiring a second mortgage on your house.

Sustainable & Clear Cut Free
Made from sustainably-sourced exotic and native tonewoods. No clear-cut trees are used in these instruments. Breedlove uses salvaged and individually harvested timber and has deep relationships with responsible suppliers around the globe. As we move towards sustainability across all lines, owner Tom Bedell has visited 15 countries to discover exactly where the wood comes from, how it is selected and harvested, and how this affects the wildlife, the community, the forest and the planet.
Real Solid Tonewoods for Superior Sound
No Richlite or resin impregnated softwoods, no glue-heavy plywoods: just solid real tonewoods for real tone.
Fishman Electronics
Side-mounted Fishman Flex Plus-T electronics with volume, treble, bass, and phase controls, plus on onboard tuner.
European Spruce Tops
As a guitar top, European spruce is powerful like Adirondack, clear like Sitka, and complex and responsive like Engelmann, all of which are employed in various Breedlove guitar lines. With the Organic Pro Collection years in the making, Breedlove owner Tom Bedell literally climbed a mountain to be positive that the exotic FSC-certified tonewoods used in the assortment are harvested in responsible ways that respect the earth, while providing for superior tone that will last a lifetime. High in the windblown Swiss Alps, Bedell watched as European spruce trees were individually selected—each yielding many dozens of top sets—with an eye towards keeping the old growth stands robust for decades to come.
Sustainable Myrtlewood Back & Sides
Popularized by Breedlove, myrtlewood, from the windblown Oregon coast, combines the best elements of rosewood, mahogany and maple—rich bass, warm midrange and clear, bright trebles—for truly versatile guitars. Each sonically distinct instrument is individualized by the gnarled, wildly varied, but always arresting grain patterns.
Concert Body Shape
The Concert is our most popular body shape, favored by players because it is well-balanced, compact, comfortable to play, and offers all the qualities of a great sounding guitar. It generates a wonderfully articulate range of tone with an ample low end that is never boomy, but always felt. The Concert works well when played fingerstyle, as vocal accompaniment, or at a full strum.
Cascade Bracing for Custom Shop Sound
Conceived in the shadow of the Cascade Mountain Range, Breedlove’s Cascade Bracing delivers pinnacle acoustic soundand American ingenuity in guitars for everyone.
Every USA made Breedlove guitar gets hand-voiced by one of our builders in Bend, Oregon. These craftspeople achieve sonic perfection by meticulously shaping each instrument’s internal bracing. But, we’re not just artists and artisans, we’re guitar geeks. We keep meticulous records—every refinement, every change, every delicate curl of wood off the chisel gets logged in our database.
We used all that combined knowledge and experience to answer a simple question: “How can we make our accessible, production guitars sound even closer to the showpieces from our Custom Shop?” The answer? Cascade Bracing.

What Players are Saying
Reviews, Testimonials & Awards
I could tell right away the setup was done with care and detail. I got the total VIP treatment, which feels really good. I am SO happy with this guitar and I have been playing it quite a bit. It plays so easily and projects so well. Such a beautiful one they picked out for me too. You should see the myrtle wood on the back. Just stunning. And that “Burnt Amber” bust is so tasteful it reminds me of Kentucky Straight Bourbon barrels aging. Cheers!
