Myrtlewood - Myrtlewood

Oregon Dreadnought Concerto Old Fashioned CE

Crafted by muddling sugar with bitters and water, a helping of whiskey, and finishing with an orange slice and a cherry, the Old Fashioned custom color burst on this limited edition acoustic-electric is sure to hit the spot! An alluring Breedlove handcrafted from locally sourced native myrtlewood, it is wonderfully alive with classic Oregon Series tone. The Hard Rock maple neck and myrtlewood body combine to deliver accentuated depth and clarity across the spectrum. Loud, textured and supremely satisfying, Breedlove’s proprietary Concerto delivers more volume and more nuance than the standard classic dreadnought. Our largest body shape retains trademark Breedlove playing comfort while summoning a lush, complex tonal response.

Guitar Portrait

We are pleased to present these detailed specifications for your Breedlove guitar, which was designed and handcrafted in Bend, Oregon. In addition to its dimensions, we have listed every piece of solid wood used in this model, giving its common name, scientific name and country of origin. We use no clear-cut wood. We salvage fallen timber or individually harvest trees to minimize impact on the forest. You can travel worry free with your Made in Bend Breedlove—no permits are needed. Still, if you plan on trekking internationally, we suggest printing this information and carrying it with your guitar to avoid misunderstandings or prolonged waits with customs officials.
