An Heirloom-Quality Breedlove Guitar with Legendary Tonewoods
The Breedlove Premier Concerto acoustic-electric guitar brings together two of the most coveted tonewoods—Adirondack spruce and Brazilian rosewood—for a legendary instrument with heirloom-level craftsmanship. Breedlove luthiers meticulously hand-voice each Concerto guitar for optimal resonance and sustain. The large dreadnought Concerto body yields a powerful, nuanced acoustic tone to match the celebrated wood combination. Equipped with an LR Baggs Anthem pickup, this limited edition beauty captures your playing with stunning clarity and detail. Its fast-playing neck and slim profile provide comfort, while the elegant Tobacco Sunburst finish looks absolutely stunning.
Legendary Tonewood Combination With Adirondack Spruce and Brazilian Rosewood
This special Breedlove Concerto guitar features two of the most sought-after tonewoods—Adirondack spruce on top and Brazilian rosewood for the back and sides. Spruce is revered for its balanced and clear tone, while Brazilian rosewood contributes complex overtones, warmth and excellent note separation. Together, they create a rich and nuanced acoustic voice. The wood is carefully selected and matched for the ideal resonance and sustain. Owning the Premier Concerto gives you a piece of guitar history to enjoy and cherish.
Large Jumbo Concerto Body Delivers Powerful, Nuanced Tone
The Concerto's large dreadnought body yields impressive volume and bass, while still capturing the guitar's clear treble notes. Its sleek cutaway allows easy access to upper frets for soloing. Weighing less than traditional dreadnoughts, the chambered Concerto body resonates freely as you play, surrounding you with lush, detailed acoustic tone. Three elegant soundholes allow its spruce top to breathe for enhanced resonance.
Slim Neck Profile and Cutaway Enable Effortless Playability
The Breedlove Premier Concerto features a slim soft C neck profile that feels sleek and fast in your hands, along with a 25.5" scale length for comfortable fretting. The cutaway grants easy access all the way up the neck for solos and melodies. The hand-rubbed semi-gloss neck finish optimizes smooth playability. The Premier Concerto is designed so you can play your very best with ease and inspiration.
Hand-Voiced by Breedlove Luthiers for Personalized Sound
Breedlove "hand voices" each Concerto model for the best possible tone. Master luthiers tap and listen to the guitar's resonance, then make tiny precision adjustments to the bracing. This brings out the optimal frequencies to give your Concerto a personalized voice. The detailed craftsmanship makes these special guitars a joy to play and own.
LR Baggs Anthem Pickup Captures Your Natural Acoustic Tone
The LR Baggs Anthem pickup accurately conveys the Concerto's rich acoustic voice with clarity through an amp or PA. Its flexible EQ lets you shape your amplified tone. Combined with the legendary tonewoods, it gives you an acoustic guitar ideal for any venue. The pickup blends seamlessly with your natural acoustic sound.
