Sustainably Harvested Oregon Myrtlewood Resonates Beautifully
The Breedlove Oregon Concert Lagoon is crafted entirely from locally harvested Oregon myrtlewood, including the top, back and sides. Unlike traditional guitars, nothing is clear-cut. This ensures the myrtlewood is ethically sourced to protect Oregon's natural resources. Beyond looking stunning, especially with the custom Lagoon finish, the myrtlewood produces a balanced, resonant tone. You'll hear enhanced depth and clarity that myrtlewood is known for in every chord you play. Combined with hand-voiced bracing, this guitar's woody sound will make your playing come alive.
Sound Optimization Technology Dials In Your Tone
Breedlove developed their Sound Optimization process to help you play better and sound better. It starts with choosing the right sustainably sourced tonewoods like myrtlewood. Then experienced luthiers meticulously tap and shave the X-bracing by hand, targeting specific frequencies to optimize your individual guitar's voice. To further enhance the tone, Breedlove outfits the Oregon Concert Lagoon with LR Baggs Anthem electronics. The soundhole-mounted preamp system lets you shape your amplified tone with volume and tone controls.
Giving Back By Planting 100 Trees Per Guitar
With their Earth Day promotion, Breedlove partners with One Tree Planted to plant 100 trees for every Oregon Concert Lagoon sold. This helps give back to the environment and spread awareness about sustainable forestry. It's a fitting way to celebrate the ethically harvested myrtlewood used to build these guitars. You can be proud that your purchase contributes to reforestation efforts.
Slim Neck Profile Tailored for Electric Players
The Oregon Concert Lagoon features Breedlove's Soft C neck profile. With a nut width of 1.75", it's slimmer than many traditional classical guitars. This makes it easier to play, especially for those with smaller hands. Electric guitarists transitioning to acoustic will appreciate the comfortable and familiar feel. The hand-rubbed semi-gloss neck finish further enhances playability. Whether you're playing on stage or tracking in the studio, you'll find this Breedlove's neck facilitates accuracy.
