What happens when you shrink the Organic Pro Performer series down to a Concertina (Breedlove’s version of the parlour) body shape? Only good things. This guitar offers everything you want from a professional-grade, all-solid-body guitar in a small, powerful package. With 12 frets to the body, the Performer Pro Concertina CE produces a unique, inviting tone, with the bridge sitting right on the European spruce top’s sweet spot. A short scale and soft cutaway open up every fret, whether bending the blues, shaking a wicked vibrato or simply singing your favourite song from Spotify. Working musicians love the Performer Pro’s killer combination of classic spruce and mahogany tone, with beautifully understated looks. When plugged in, the Fishman Flex T-Plus electronics, capture true acoustic sound and allow you to make this small-bodied guitar sound as big as you like.

Sustainable & Clear Cut Free
Made from sustainably-sourced exotic and native tonewoods. No clear-cut trees are used in these instruments. Breedlove uses salvaged and individually harvested timber and has deep relationships with responsible suppliers around the globe. As we move towards sustainability across all lines, owner Tom Bedell has visited 15 countries to discover exactly where the wood comes from, how it is selected and harvested, and how this affects the wildlife, the community, the forest and the planet.

Concertina Body Shape
Breedlove’s small body guitar, delivering a surprisingly clear, crisp, loud sound. It’s 12-frets to the body design make it a joy to play. Extensive Sound Optimization engineering has resulted in a body shape that has a bigger sound and is more comfortable to play than a traditional parlour.

European Spruce
As a guitar top, European spruce is powerful like Adirondack, clear like Sitka, and complex and responsive like Engelmann, all of which are employed in various Breedlove guitar lines. With the Organic Pro Collection years in the making, Breedlove owner Tom Bedell literally climbed a mountain to be positive that the exotic FSC-certified tonewoods used in the assortment are harvested in responsible ways that respect the earth, while providing for superior tone that will last a lifetime. High in the windblown Swiss Alps, Bedell watched as European spruce trees were individually selected—each yielding many dozens of top sets—with an eye towards keeping the old growth stands robust for decades to come.

African Mahogany
Sometimes called khaya, African mahogany has a familiar crisp, clean and warm voice and boasts an impressive versatility, taking well to fingerpicking as well as to a more robust strumming attack without losing clarity. Mahogany offers a natural compression that delights blues players, folkies and singer/songwriters.

Real Solid Tonewoods used Throughout
No Richlite or resin impregnated softwoods, no glue-heavy plywoods: just solid real tonewoods for real tone.
