Description
Breedlove Oregon Concert CE Myrtlewood-Myrtlewood Exhibition Guitar
This Concert body acoustic-electric sits perfectly in the hands for extended sets of fingerstyle, strumming, and vocal accompaniment work. The 25.5" scale length and 1.75" nut width deliver a comfortable grip without losing projection, while the Eastern hard rock maple neck and African ebony fretboard ensure the neck stays true through years of gigging. Hand-voiced by Breedlove luthiers and finished in natural gloss, this limited-edition instrument combines playability refinement with exhibition-grade craftsmanship that justifies keeping it in your collection.
Tone & Electronics
The solid myrtlewood top, back, and sides produce a distinctive tonal character—warm, articulate, and resonant across the full range. Run through the included LR Baggs Anthem TRU-Mic pickup system, this guitar translates its acoustic voice faithfully to any PA or live rig without coloration, while the Delta bridge in African ebony locks in energy transfer for solid sustain that cuts through a mix.
