Breedlove Premier Series

Of all acoustic guitar tonewoods, East Indian rosewood ranks among the greatest. The Breedlove Premier Series of acoustic guitars employs this well-loved wood to stunning effect, utilising it on a range of instruments designed for the discerning performing musician. Breedlove Premier series electro-acoustic guitars are hand made in Breedlove's Oregon factory by some of the world's finest guitar luthiers. Most are fitted with a cutaway for easy upper-fret access, along with LR Baggs electronics for peerless amplified performance.

Breedlove is a company which prides itself not only on the quality of its guitars, but on making outstanding guitars in a sustainable manner. This is particularly important with rosewood, the key tonewood used in Breedlove Premier Series acoustic guitars, which is classed as endangered and subject to strict shipping regulations. Breedlove goes to great lengths to ensure that all rosewood used in the Premier Series is sustainable sourced, with thorough custody management and record keeping. Their focus on reputably-sourced woods also allows greater attention to tonewood quality. We're pleased to say that the rosewood used on the Premier Series is of the highest quality, exhibiting all the complex tonalities for which this classic tonewood is loved.

Breedlove's Premier Series acoustic guitars all benefit from Breedlove's advanced Sound Optimization process, designed to extract optimum performance from each individual sheet of tonewood. Each piece of wood exhibits unique properties in terms of consistency and density; even two pieces taken from the same tree. Breedlove measures these properties, thinning each sheet to the perfect thickness to perform at its best. Once this process has taken place, and the soundbox has been constructed, the body is further optimised until it resonates at the perfect frequency.

Each Breedlove Premier Series electro-acoustic is gloss finished, with either a natural finish or a stunning burst applied to the top. In line with the Premier Series focus on gigging usability, most models in the series are fitted with a cutaway, facilitating easy upper-fret access. As with all Breedlove guitars, Premier Series instruments feature Breedlove's pinless bridge, which eliminates bridgepin holes for an uncompromised soundboard.

Breedlove premier series instruments are fitted with the LR Baggs Element Active pickup system, for class-leading amplified performance. LR Baggs has a singular focus on producing unparalleled amplification for acoustic instruments, being fitted to the world's best hand-made acoustic guitars. The combination of Breedlove's acoustic innovation and Baggs's superlative pickup systems results in a truly outstanding range of electro-acoustic guitars.
