Breedlove Oregon All-Myrtlewood 12-String Cutaway Concerto Acoustic-Electric Guitar Old Fashioned
Description
The Breedlove Oregon Concerto CE 12-string acoustic-electric guitar brings together exotic tonewoods and innovative design for an inspiring playing experience. Crafted entirely from beautiful Oregon myrtlewood, the Concerto CE 12-string rewards you with a voice that's wonderfully alive. Its concerto body shape elicits more volume and tonal complexity than a classic dreadnought, while feeling comfortable to play. With the LR Baggs EAS VTC pickup system, you can craft versatile amplified tones with the turn of a knob. The 12 singing strings invite lush, ringing chords and intricate fingerstyle arrangements.
Exotic Myrtlewood Body and Neck For Rich, Complex Tone
This Concerto CE 12-string acoustic-electric guitar features a body and neck built from Oregon myrtlewood, which Breedlove pioneered for use in musical instruments. With qualities similar to rosewood, mahogany and maple, myrtlewood grants the Concerto CE a unique voice—one alive with clarity, quick response and individual character. The synergy between the myrtlewood top and back produces a lush, textured tone. You'll hear and feel more vibrant overtones across the tonal spectrum.
Innovative Concerto Body Design for Big Sound and Comfort
Breedlove designed their concerto body shape to elicit more volume than a classic dreadnought, with added tonal complexity. The Concerto CE 12-string's interior air space allows your tone to fully bloom, while its reduced soundhole increases air resistance for a robust voice. The contoured body feels natural to play sitting down or standing up. Approachable for all players, the Concerto CE 12-string rewards you with lush, supremely satisfying tone.
LR Baggs EAS VTC Pickup Amplified Tone
When it's time to plug in, you can do it with confidence thanks to the onboard LR Baggs EAS VTC pickup. With discrete volume and tone pickup control as well as a Class A preamp with an analog compressor means you'll get excellent capture of your guitar's dynamics with the ability to dial it up or tweak it enough to match the energy you need in the studio or on stage.
Premium Details Enhance Playability
With its ebony fingerboard and bridge, the Concerto offers crisp note articulation. Premium tuners provide reliable tuning stability. The hand-voiced bracing is optimized for the myrtlewood's lush resonance. Every detail of the Breedlove Oregon Concerto CE acoustic-electric guitar is designed to inspire your best performances.
