Breedlove USA Oregon Concerto CE Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Solid Myrtlewood

** Exact guitar you will receive is pictured - NOT a stock photo :) **

** Hardshell Case Included **

With its hypnotic, variegated color patterns and unique sonic clarity, melding, somehow, the best aspects of rosewood, mahogany and maple, myrtlewood would qualify as one of the great exotic tonewoods. But it’s native! It grows—gnarled, strong and beautiful—on Oregon’s rainy, windswept Pacific coast, just 90 miles from Bend. Breedlove, in fact, led the charge in using myrtle for fine guitars, and that proud lineage continues with the best-selling Oregon series. Denser than Sitka spruce, myrtlewood—as a result of Sound Optimization®—can be planed and sanded even thinner, releasing more energy for a balanced profile alive with bass, midrange and treble in equal measure. Now available in all four revolutionary Breedlove body styles, and with contemporary soft cutaways, each Oregon series guitar—in Cinnamon Burst, Bourbon Burst or Natural finish—is equipped with LR Baggs EAS VTC electronics and comes with a deluxe Breedlove hardshell case.
 

Built on the Oregon Series Concerto larger body design, this all myrtlewood acoustic guitar has been updated with a cutaway for convenient access to the entire fretboard. The crisp, clean sound of myrtlewood is extremely balanced with note-to-note clarity that you can really drive with the stiffer myrtlewood top. Ideal for strumming play action.The Oregon Concerto CE Myrtlewood – Myrtlewood is a body size larger than the award-winning Concert model, delivering more projection from the larger Concerto body shape.
