Breedlove Limited Edition Oregon Concert Acoustic Guitar, Earthsong Burst
PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE
We're very proud to have worked with Breedlove on bringing you this gorgeous Limited Edition Earthsong Oregon Concert acoustic guitar! This is one that we're particularly honored to offer as this run of guitars is going to a very good cause - Breedlove enlisted the help of the non-profit One Tree Planted, who will plant 100 trees for every guitar purchased! Our friends up in Oregon are always looking to do their part in taking care of our Earth, and this is the latest and greatest in that endeavor. This one comes in a stunning custom Earthsong sunburst finish.
Myrtlewood is a fairly unique wood that is starting to make its way more and more into acoustic guitar building. Breedlove started to champion the idea of using local and sustainable woods from around the Oregon area for some of these guitars, and myrtlewood is at the top of that list. It sounds awesome, looks beautiful, and is relatively easy to work with.
The result of an myrtlewood body is a bright and loud instrument with awesome clarity and projection. Lush, organic and shimmery, the sound of this guitar is as unique as myrtlewood’s interesting figuring. It has the power and crisp top-end of maple, but with a rich, chimey harmonic content all its own. It’s great as a fingerpicker and will provide a nice foundation for the singer/songwriter.
Breedlove's neck shapes are a bit narrower/thinner from front to back than traditional acoustics and almost play more like an electric. They're extremely comfortable for anyone that finds a traditional acoustic neck a bit bulky. The fretwork and craftsmanship is top-notch to allow for very low action, if that's your cup of tea, for fingerpicking hours on end without having to worry about hand fatigue.
This is an absolutely gorgeous guitar that's a phenomenal player from from top to bottom - tone, playability, and looks. And it just so happens that by owning this beautiful piece, you can feel good about helping to take care of the environment as well!
MANUFACTURER'S DESCRIPTION
The Oregon Concert Earthsong Limited Edition acoustic guitar perfectly demonstrates our company’s commitment to both exquisite acoustic guitars and protecting our natural resources. The guitar is crafted from clear-cut-free, locally sourced, native Myrtlewood, accenting its tonal depth and clarity. We then finish each instrument in a custom, limited-edition Earthsong gloss burst. Finally, celebrating Earth Day 2023, we’re partnering with global reforestation non-for-profit One Tree Planted to plant 100 new trees for every guitar sold.
As beautiful as they are unique and have a touch response that must be experienced, these Made in Bend guitars will be a favorite of both players and collectors.
Production is extremely limited. Get yours before they’re gone.
