Breedlove Solo Pro Concert Edgeburst CE
Acoustic Guitar with Hardshell Case
Please note: This guitar includes a hardshell case.
One guitar to rule them all. The Solo Pro Concert Edgeburst offers versatility without sacrificing sound quality. This guitar performs just as well with heavy strumming as it does with subtle fingerstyle. It’s the perfect professional grade instrument for players looking for an all-in-one guitar that can stand out or be soft, sweet, and nuanced. The side monitor soundhole virtually puts you in the audience while you play, without diminishing forward projection, a feature that’s especially useful when playing with a group of musicians. The solid red cedar top resonates with warm overtones while the solid African mahogany back anchor this guitar’s rich depth. A 1 11/16-inch radiused neck makes this instrument a joy to play. Fishman Flex Plus-T electronics with volume and tone controls as well as a built-in tuner come standard. The cutaway body gives full access to the entire ovangkol fretboard. You will sound better, play better and play more on a Breedlove Solo Pro Series acoustic-electric guitar.
Side Sound Hole
The unique Side Monitor Soundhole that virtually puts your ears in the audience while you play. Hearing every nuance of your instrument—whether you’re writing, rehearsing or performing—gives you a sonic perspective that will bring out the best in your playing.
Concert Body Shape
The Concert is our most popular body shape, favored by players because it is well-balanced, compact, comfortable to play, and offers all the qualities of a great sounding guitar. It generates a wonderfully articulate range of tone with an ample low end that is never boomy, but always felt. The Concert works well when played fingerstyle, as vocal accompaniment, or at a full strum.
Breedlove Pinless Bridge
Breedlove’s pinless Delta bridge is a distinctive element, alright, with a sleek, modern contour that adds an extra bit of unexpected beauty to every instrument, from Discovery to Legacy. But it also adds welcome functionality while anchoring great sound. Beginners love the fact that string changes are much easier without having to wrestle a traditional pin bridge. Pros love it for the same reason! No more looking for lost pins during a fast backstage string swap. And its low profile makes for perfect right hand damping.
Cascade Bracing for Custom Shop Sound
Conceived in the shadow of the Cascade Mountain Range, Breedlove’s Cascade Bracing delivers pinnacle acoustic sound and American ingenuity in guitars for everyone.
Every USA made Breedlove guitar gets hand-voiced by one of our builders in Bend, Oregon. These craftspeople achieve sonic perfection by meticulously shaping each instrument’s internal bracing. But, we’re not just artists and artisans, we’re guitar geeks. We keep meticulous records—every refinement, every change, every delicate curl of wood off the chisel gets logged in our database.
We used all that combined knowledge and experience to answer a simple question: “How can we make our accessible, production guitars sound even closer to the showpieces from our Custom Shop?” The answer? Cascade Bracing.
Solid Red Cedar Top
Softer than spruce, with a warmer cast to its look and its tone, western red cedar has less headroom for a heavy attack, but comes alive—with sweet harmonics and a wide tonal palette—for a lighter touch. Related to mahogany, it shares a focused sound, much loved by fingerstylists.
Fishman Electronics
Side-mounted Fishman Flex Plus-T electronics with volume, treble, bass, and phase controls, plus on onboard tuner.
Solid 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. All mahogany instruments—like the Organic Collection Wildwood Series (which features sustainably harvested wood source from the Republic of Congo) offer a natural compression that delights blues players, folkies and singer/songwriters.
Versatile Play Style
The Breedlove Play Style system was created to help you, the player, select your sound and playing style. Finding the most appropriate guitar to fit your sound requires finding not only the correct body shape, but the proper tonewood combinations to fit your style of play. Each Breedlove guitar is designed for a specific play style and sound, the Play Style systems assign a playing style icon to each instrument.
V | Versatile Play, Multiple Styles: Breedlove crafts most guitars with a versatile “all-purpose” sound and feel – well balanced between strumming and fingerstyle play.
