CRAFTED IN OREGON Where we’re from Our instruments are a reflection of who we are, where we’re from and what we believe in. Where Breedlove Guitars are designed and crafted is just as important as how and why they are built. Breedlove Guitars is rooted in the small mountain town of Bend, Oregon. We chose to live close to nature with an emphasis on outdoor recreation, strong community, a love of music, environmental awareness and an appreciation for all things created by skilled craftsmen. We’ve been crafting guitars in Bend for a long time now, and we are happy to call it home. Welcome to Bend. Welcome to Breedlove. The way life should be. The way instruments should be crafted.

4


MEET OUR TEAM Designed and crafted by people you’d want to play with Visit the Break Room at our workshop and the team is probably talking about the latest snowfall, the biggest waves, or a fresh push of wild salmon into a nearby river. It’s an intertwined convergence of passions, obsessions, and a harmony between what feeds our souls on and off the clock. It’s just one of the elements which allows us to craft the best sounding instruments the right way. Our connection to the natural world around us provides insight into the woods we work with, the forest stewardship we believe in and backs up our commitment to being the authority on acoustic sound.

Mt. Hood is just one of the many iconic wild places on the skyline out our back door.

5


THE SOUND OPTIMISATION™ PROCESS Our four step process starts in the forest, is implemented in our workshop and comes to life within each strum. 1. The Sound Optimisation™ Process begins with The Tonewood Certification Project, where we sustainably source exotic tonewoods from the world’s forests.

2. Next, we analyse each wood species and individual tonewood set to understand its variability and music making capability. 3. Then, we individually craft each USA made guitar using frequency analysis and hand voicing to minimise instrument variability and yield consistently superior sounding and playing guitars. 4. Lastly, Sound Optimisation™ allows us to craft revolutionary body shapes to fit you to your sound and playing style.

6


BREEDLOVE SOUND OPTIMISATION™ Why the modern production guitar is not living up to its sound potential, and how we consistently craft the best sounding guitars. Unlike other acoustic guitar production companies, every Breedlove is not only handcrafted one-by-one, but each individual tonewood set is analysed using our process to account for the variability in every piece of wood, resulting in consistently superior sound, tone and play action.

UNDERSTANDING TONEWOOD VARIABILITY Tonewood Density and Frequency can vary up to 30% in a single tree! In Breedlove’s Sound Optimisation Lab, every tonewood set is analysed and milled for the desired body shape, sound and playing style for each instrument.

WHY SOUND OPTIMISATION™ MATTERS You will sound better, play better and play more on a Breedlove. Breedlove guitars will consistently sound and play better than any other production guitar on the market.

7


THE REVOLUTIONARY BODY SHAPES Shaping the Future of Guitar

CRAFTING GUITARS FOR YOUR PLAYING STYLE With Sound Optimisation™, Breedlove individually selects and prepares each guitar top with the right stiffness (deflection) for the body shape and the playing style you prefer – more stiffness for stronger strumming - heavier play; more forgiveness for fingerstyle and lighter play.

10

H

H | Heavier Play, Strumming: Historically, larger guitars are designed for bigger sound and stronger play. With Sound Optimisation, Breedlove can achieve this robust playing action on the guitar body shape that is most comfortable to the player.

V

V |Versatile Play, Multiple Styles: Breedlove crafts most guitars with a versatile “all-purpose”sound and feel – well balanced between strumming and fingerstyle play.

L

L | Lighter Play, Fingerstyle: One of Breedlove’s specialties is crafting guitars with a more focused, individual note-for-note clarity and tonal balance.


SELECTING THE PERFECT GUITAR FOR YOUR SOUND AND PLAYING STYLE Each Breedlove guitar handcrafted in Bend, Oregon, is designed for a targeted sound and style of play. With Sound Optimisation you can count on instrument consistency – there is no need to experience several instruments of the same model to find the one.

FRONTIER SERIES The SOUND of America’s West Old-Growth Traditional Tonewood from the Mayan Biosphere

There is something magical when the wood from the same old-growth forest are used throughout an instrument – especially when it is Honduran mahogany. With a higher density than spruce, we are able to sand the mahogany tops to a thinness that drives the sound, facilitating plush overtones that mingle with increased instrument projection. Known for its midrange warmth, these all mahogany guitars fit comfortably in an ensemble of other stringed instruments and provide ideal accompaniment for vocals. Handcrafted in Bend, Oregon. Each Frontier is factory equipped with LR Baggs EAS VTC electronics and comes with a deluxe Breedlove hardshell case.

OREGON SERIES All Myrtlewood for High Energy Sound Breedlove’s Most Popular USA Crafted Guitars

Myrtlewood is a gnarly tree that grows along Oregon’s Pacific Coast. Battered by wind and rain, it grows in rich figured, colourful hues. Its musical character is a marriage of rosewood, mahogany and maple – balanced and alive with bass, mid and treble sound. Myrtlewood is denser than Sitka spruce, allowing us to sand the tops thinner giving more energy to sound creation. Handcrafted in Bend, Oregon. Each Oregon is factory equipped with LR Baggs EAS VTC electronics and comes with a deluxe Breedlove hardshell case.

OREGON SERIES Marrying Sitka Spruce with Myrtlewood Surpassing the Sound, Tonal Balance and Richness of Traditional Tonewoods

By far the most commonly used top wood, Sitka spruce has an exceptional strength to weight ratio. Growing in southeast Alaska’s temperate rainforest, it grows less than six inches a year, fighting its way through the dense old-growth forests. Growing straight and up to 300 feet tall, the age of the trees used by Breedlove are 4-600 years old. We never harvest one of these magnificent trees, but work with Alaska Specialty Woods to salvage blown down, dead trees from the forest floor. Coupling old-growth Sitka with the gnarly Myrtlewood results in instruments that have far surpassed traditional guitars in sound. Hand Crafted in Bend, Oregon. Each Oregon is factory equipped with LR Baggs EAS VTC electronics and comes with a deluxe Breedlove hardshell case.

USA SERIES Lighter, Livelier Big Sound

When you first pick up a USA instrument, you will immediately recognise its lightness. When you first play it, you will be amazed at its loudness. Handcrafted in Bend, Oregon.
