Breedlove ECO Collection

Here at Merchant City Music we’re very proud to be a Breedlove Distinctive Dealer. Two values drive Breedlove as a company: protecting the world’s forests and maximizing acoustic guitar sound. Breedlove’s ECO Collection is designed to address both of these aims. In a visionary feat of engineering, Breedlove has developed a process to integrate three layers of tonewood—sustainably harvested from forests visited by Breedlove owner Tom Bedell—avoiding the soft center core that dampens sound on other laminates.

With the Breedlove ECO Collection you can play an environmentally friendly, solid top guitar with vibrant, renewable, sound-enhancing EcoTonewood back and sides. New Breedlove Designed in Bend Discovery S, Pursuit Exotic S and all-African mahogany Rainforest S models feature this fully sustainable integrated tonewood technology. Now, great, affordable, natural sound can be good to the earth, too.

EcoTonewoods

With EcoTonewood, Breedlove makes laminate technology sustainable, introducing a resonant core tonewood layer of clear-cut free, individually harvested African mahogany in place of the typical tone-robbing softwoods used in standard acoustic guitar manufacture. Coupled with Breedlove’s deep research into revolutionary body shapes; building to target tonewood weight adds to the optimized, natural sound of each guitar in the ECO Collection. And, Breedlove creates these better sounding laminate guitars while being kind to the earth while maintaining an accessible, entry-level price-point.
