The fewer holes in your soundboard, the more evenly the sound wave can move across the interior, without any loss of energy The Breedlove Pinless Bridge also provides a gentler string-break angle from the bridge to the top of the saddle, reducing saddle strain.

This innovative bridge also makes string changes a breeze, especially on 12 strings Plus, you’ll never again have to worry about lost, worn-out, or broken bridge pins.

BREEDLOVE NECK Breedlove guitars feature a slimmer neck profile, which enables comfortable play, even with smaller hands The hand-rubbed, semi-gloss Breedlove neck finish also contributes to ideal playability.

The labor-intensive finish process includes precise finish coat applications, fine sanding, and hand buffing and rubbing TOP WOOD Sitka spruce, picea sitchensis, originates in the northwest United States.

Sitka spruce has been the primary top wood for American-made instruments for decades It is strong and light with extended harmonic content, and it nearly equals the power of Adirondack.

It offers a strong, focused tone with a solid fundamental -- perfect for flatpicking styles When compared with European spruce, Sitka delivers warmer, more fundamental sound, largely free of overtones.

Sitka takes a slightly longer period of playing time to open up It has a straight uniform grain and coloration ranges from white to pink to light brown.
