Product info

The Breedlove Legacy Concerto is an enigma. Its design is beautiful and it is comfortable to play. Its music is sweet, complex and textured. Yet its voice is full, loud and ever-present. The power of the Adirondack spruce top matched with the sweetness of Hawaiian koa results in a unique instrument, different from any have ever played before. The larger air volume in the lower bout, allows notes to resonate and be enriched by the developing overtones. The Legacy Concerto accommodates heavy strumming, yet sings with a lighter touch, while delivering a warmer louder sound than traditional dreadnoughts.Sustainable & Clear-Cut FreeBreedlove uses no clear-cut woods in its Made in Bend models. It’s that’s simple. This model features sustainably sourced all-solid exotic and native tonewoods handcrafted by skilled luthiers who are as sensitive to the needs of the Earth as they are to building the best-sounding and playing guitars available anywhere.The Concerto Body ShapeWhen Breedlove set out to create a guitar that would surpass the classic big body sound of the dreadnought, they didn’t just want it to be loud. They sought to bring out more tonal complexity, and to offer a much more comfortable playing experience, too. The Breedlove Concerto is 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.Adirondack Spruce TopAdirondack spruce has been the choice of bluegrass pickers for decades, and seems to add power to any guitar design. If it’s loud want, Adirondack is for . Adirondack is even more dynamic than Sitka spruce, and has a higher ceiling for volume. can strum an Adirondack-topped guitar aggressively without distortion or loss of clarity. It’s perfect for the aggressive player who wants volume and clarity without distortion, or the player or collector who wants the vibe of a pre-war guitar. Like Sitka, it has strong fundamentals and responds well to either a light or firm touch, but has higher resonance and exhibits a more complex overtone content. Koa Back & SidesKoa is characterized by a tone that is both clear and sweet. The voice grows over time, from sweet to sweeter. The wood “opens up” the more the instrument is played, expanding the midrange, for an even richer, sweeter tone over time. Sound Optimization & Hand VoicingWhy do Breedlove guitars sound so good? It’s simple, Breedlove guitars are made with care, with the goal of allowing to play better, sound better and play more. But it’s also complex, with art, inspiration, craft and science merging together in a process called Sound Optimization. These models are hand-voiced, with experienced luthiers meticulously tapping, listening and shaving away tiny curls of exquisite tonewood as they target specific, measurable frequencies that will make each unique, individual instrument sound its very best. The tonewood species are carefully milled, weighed and considered, with backs and tops specifically tuned to each other to create light, responsive guitars with superior tone and sustain.The Breedlove NeckBreedlove guitar necks feature a slimmer neck profile, which enables comfortable play, even with smaller hands. Unlike traditional dovetail neck joints that require major surgery for a neck re-set, it is easy to adjust the play action and neck angle with the Breedlove bolt-on neck and single-action truss rod. The hand-rubbed, semi-gloss Breedlove neck finish contributes to ideal playability—the finish process alone takes three days, including precise finish coat applications, fine sanding, and hand buffing and rubbing.Limited Lifetime WarrantyBreedlove players around the world can attest: With consistent, proper care, Breedlove will give a lifetime of service – and inspiration
