Breedlove Guitars - What Makes Them Special?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 сер 2019
- Paul sits down with our Breedlove rep, Colin for a brief history and an explanation of their process… which is super interesting! They source many of their own woods (like Myrtle wood) in Oregon AND have some crazy cool computer technology to help decide which wood or which appointments work best on a particular guitar. Worth watching!

I viewed a hundred videos of guitars and tried about 2 dozen but I couldn't get my hands on a Breedlove Organic Wildwood Concert, which was the one I really had my eye on, even though it was above my paygrade. I reluctantly bought it off Internet from a website based in Germany, and I could not be happier with it. It is well beyond any of my high expectations, a truly marvellous guitar, both in terms of appearance and playability. The sound is awesome for a guitar in that price range and suits my playing style (mostly fingerpicking) perfectly. I had not expected it to project so much sound, given I had previously owned Dreadnoughts mostly, this one is far more powerful than any of the (solid top / laminate back) Dreadnoughts I had owned.
I've been playing a Breedlove for about 10 years. My "new" Breedlove is an Oregon series Myrtlewood Concert. It's a beautiful guitar with a HUGE sound.
ok that's the one I want to get if I win the lottery ;) have fun with it!
I was just playing my dad's "murderwood" Breedlove. Not only does that guitar have more bass than pretty much anything else, but it also has a ton of low mids to go with it.
Been playing breedlove for 10 years love them
I was looking for a Martin when I tried a few of these Breedlove's. Needless to say, I was sold on them as I found one that had the tone that fit my playing style and what I was looking for.
I’m about to buy my first Breedlove this weekend. I’ve heard nothing but good things about them.,so excited
I got my Breedlove back in 2008 and still love it
I have a couple Breedlove guitars. A 12 string and a 6 string. They are both phenomenal!
I was playing $1500 Martin at the guitar center but I tried a $700 Breedlove and it blew me away. I bought it and it’s still my favorite.
The Martins below the *18 line are honestly not good.
I have a Breedlove, Taylor and a Martin guitar. The Breedlove is fantastic!
Breedlove make their less expensive series offshore and I don’t think they can be compared to their US made models. Apples and oranges.. As for using downed trees when suitable, there is a growing trend in Luthery to be more environmentally responsible; reclaimed (used) wood, stump wood, sinker logs, native and alternative species, etc. I think that should be applauded.
I bought my Breedlove (acoustic/inside pickup), on a whim. Something about this guitar just sounded different. It had no external hardware, so you could not tell that it also had a pickup inside (it is hidden up inside where the neck meets the body), just a small volume wheel hidden inside the small soundhole. Plug-in is through the back guitar-strap knob. I loved the cutaway above the 12th fret. Beautiful wood, unique headstock and binding, myrtlewood back and sides. Pegless bridge was crucial in my decision with the bone inlay. I haven't played a better acoustic since I've bought mine. I highly recommend that you at least play a Breedlove before making that final decision. Forget Martin and Taylor and Yamaha and Gibson. You're paying for a name; not playability and sound. Grab one of these beauties while they are still affordable. Once you own one, you will not want to part with it anyway. I'm not a Breedlove spokesperson, just a regular guitar player for the past 45 years. Incredible sound and lovely playing.
I won't be kicking my Cole Clark or my Taylors to the curb, but Breedlove has become my all-round favorite guitar maker. I have a Redwood/Rosewood Legacy Concert and an Oregon Concertina. Between them they'll do anything I want an acoustic guitar to do, and if ambient noise gets too high I can plug 'em in too.
I hope they're doing factory tours again the next time I'm in the area.
Bought a 2007 Mastershop C25/e Rosewood/Cedar about 8 years ago and love it. I haven’t found any of the new ones to have my favorite tone palette. I personally don’t care for the sound of the Myrtlewood as well. Seems a bit bright for me. It would probably work well in a mix of other instruments though.
I purchased a Breedlove guitar (performer Concert Bourbon CE, organic performer series) for 600 dollars and I was excited and worried about spending that much for a guitar when I'm new to playing, but damn I'm so glad I did. Amazing quality, sound, durability, look and dare I say just as good as some $1,000 guitars. My next guitar is going to be a 12 string from Breedlove so I'm in love with the brand. If one of your options for buying a guitar is Breedlove, you have my recommendation.
I've got a c25/cre red cedar/rosewood love mine.
I only had bad luck with mine! Been playing over 50 years, guess I got the lemon!!
just picked up a 12 strting breedie - debating adding a CE model
I wish you would have asked about the bracing. Love the looks of Breedlove but never heard one in person.
I love my Breedlove Premier Dreadnought!
I love my Breedlove. Its the BEST!!!
Have a Breedlove Artista from their new Organic Collection, such an amazing sound for a great price, under 1000$ for an all solid wood guitar is a great value
I tried one & loved the way it felt & sounded. Should have bought it.
@@susanhawkes2519I am considering a Breedlove Organic Artista Pro Concert or a Breedlove Organic Solo Pro Concert from Sweetwater. How do these compare against the Taylor 214 and 212? Or the Martins in the same price range.
I bought my first breedlove used at a pawn shop for very cheap, I hadn't heard of them before that and I gotta say I'm astounded as to why someone would sell it to begin with, I would have paid martin/ taylor premium prices for it
I have an atlas /25 series and its my favorite
I want a breedlove 14 fret acústic nylon fancy stain between light green and gray is that possible?
How much would a misprint Breedlove start at price wise?
Continuation ?
Sorry to rain on your parade folks. I bought my Oregon series Myrtlewood Concert about a year ago. The top (The most important part for sound) has warped at the bridge. The string tension tends to pull up in this area and evidently, the bracing isn't sufficient enough to counteract this. Needless to say the sound changed too. As far as I'm concerned, this guitar just might come in handy to start a bon fire on the beach and not much else. Thanks Breedlove.
Maybe you should send it back to them, to either fix it or replace it. Then let us know what they did for you. I am sure your experience was the exception to the rule I bet. You got a bum deal.It happens to the best of us and the worst.lol My wife would sometimes pick the worst out of a bunch of something or always get bad food at a restaurant, she had a knack for it, sometimes people get in a slump or bad timing mode, so I would try something different to break that up, and hit reset.
Don't they have a lifetime warranty on that?
what's the difference between an AD20/SM and an AD200/SM ?? (please don't say one Zero)
Siapa ksni krn uncle oregon n alipbatasa..penasaran am gitarnya
that oregon series not built in u.s (oregon, bend) but outside u.s --> in cina, isn't it ??
No the Oregon Series is made in Bend, OR.
I like breedlove but I have heard some are not made in the USA some are. This confusion has prevented me from pulling the trigger on one.
@@stanrubin9409 thank you!
Hey Paul, is COOL the only descriptive adjective you know? Or don't you even know what an adjective is!!
I know he’s not wearing scrubs but it looks like he’s wearing scrubs
I've played a variety of Breedloves, including their highend ones. Unfortunately, the tone never captured my attention. They all sounded the same at the end of the day.
I had a breedlove that costs 9000usd
when looking to get a new one, play many guitars , priced low to high. there will be a sweet find in there, at muchnlower costs than the expensive names. dont overlook Yamahas
Don't feel this was one of your more helpful videos. Sound quality seemed off, but since it was all voice, guess that doesn't matter so much. Don't know that it was a positive to share that company takes in downed tree wood for guitar construction, but whatever. Would have actually appreciated a quick sound demo of just a few representative models. Maybe another time...
Tim Davis I think it’s environmentally friendlier to used ‘downed’ trees.
Wine much Tim?
Why does he look and sound like Roger Creager
Never felt drawn toward this company and never played one of their instruments. They seem cool though
Travis Niles I own a custom shop breedlove, and its one of the best guitars I’ve ever played, if not the best
@@HelloThere... nice
@@travisniles6800 yeah. I highly recommend them...
Played quite a few of these last time I was looking for a new acoustic and I wasn’t very impressed.. I thought seagull was a better sounding guitar for half the price
Bought a Seagull and sold it within 3 months. Doesn't compare to USA built Breedloves. After I sold the Seagull I have since bought 3 Breedloves.
Breedlove dude his voice is that of a conman.. like he is talking to first graders.
sounds like a line of bullshit
Eh. My import Martin still blows the US Breedlove away. I own both. It's not even close.
In your dreams boy.
My breedlove sounds so much more sweet than your Martin, it's no contest.
@@bradhuskers
😂 Ya, ok.
@@NunYa953 Is your Martin all-solid? Is Breedlove?
Ya o.k. Does Martin run and optimize their acoustic guitars with computer analytics??? No. I just yesterday played a Martin and then a Breedlove Organic Wildwood all Mahogany bodied guitar and it literally smoked the sound of the Martin. A 650.00 guitar smoked a 1,599.99 dollar Martin...Breedlove make excellent acoustics...
@@petedetraglia4776
I didn't say they aren't great guitars. But they do not compare to a Martin in any way. Go find a D28. Analytics? 😂 Good one.
Your Out of Focus.
I Love Acoustic Letter. That said, this salesperson actually just said that the locally sourced Myrtlewood has all the best tone attributes of Maple, Mahogany, and Rosewood combined. Really? And, his credibility literally vaporized. Regardless of how good the product may or may not be, I won’t even consider this company when people like this sling BS.
Really..you didn't even play any of the guitars..waisted 10 min of my life thank u
That guy can't speak
I never found Breedlove anything special. I actually like some Ibanez acoustics which sound way better, plus you can get a 1.75” Nut Width on Ibanez guitars. I haven’t found a Breedlove with that nut width. So, Breedlove uses garbage wood. Hmmm ...
reclaimed wood is not'garbage wood' ....your comment sounds garbage to me not the wood , a whole guitar judged by nut width ? very narrow mind width to me ...if you judge severly you'll be judged severly.
@@valbastiancontraio2795 Another out sourced company wow China's future is today.
@@donaldjames8662 you know something ? I don't care ,it's not Italian anyway .
They have several models in the new Organic series with a 1.75" nut.
I recently saw a review listing the best acoustic guitars. They were placed in tiers from A to F. Ibanez was rated an F, Breedlove, Martin, Taylor were listed as A tier.
