Our largest body shape, the Wildwood Pro Concerto Suede CE’s mahogany top rings, with excellent note separation and a strong midrange presence despite the instruments power and volume. As an alternative to the ubiquity of spruce, all mahogany instruments provide a thrilling change of pace, especially for artists looking to expand their sound or distinguish themselves. Balance big and bold sound with the warmth and definition of mahogany with a soft cutaway Wildwood Pro Concerto Suede CE.

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. For detailed information on the electronic, please reference the Fishman user manual.
African Mahogany
Sometimes called khaya, African mahogany has a familiar crisp, clean and warm voice and boasts an impressive versatility, taking well to fingerpicking as well as to a more robust strumming attack without losing clarity. All mahogany instruments—like the Organic Collection Wildwood Series (which features sustainably harvested wood source from the Republic of Congo) offer a natural compression that delights blues players, folkies and singer/songwriters.
Concerto Body Shape
Introducing the new Breedlove Concerto, a new guitar shape created to elicit more volume than a classic dreadnought, and more lush, complex tonal resonance in a comfortable body shape that feels just right. Loud, textured, and supremely satisfying.

This is my second Breedlove guitar. I have had a USA c25 for about 10 years and love it. I was looking for an all mahogany acoustic and when I saw Breedlove was coming out with the organic series I ordered the mahogany concerto. It is big, brown, and beatiful! If you have never played Breedloves concerto size guitars it takes a little getting used to as it is a deep guitar but I prefer it to a dreadnaught. The flat finish and aged top are great. I feel like this guitar stays in tune very well, not sure if it is due to the aged tops stability or build quality. The sound of this guitar is amazing, warm mahogany tone,and this size really projects it! The Breedlove pickup is on par with the lr baggs in my c25. If I had to pick 1 thing I’d change I’m not a fan of the sound hole mounted volume/tone controll I usually just set them and put a piece of electrical tape over them so they dont get accidentally moved and adjust everything from my lr baggs Di. The concerto size fits perfectly in an old dreadnaught case I have. With price point and the quality of this series and that Breedlove is doing the right thing with organically sourced woods they are a great deal. Awesome job Breedlove!
