Breedlove's Rainforest S is sustainably and clear-cut free, made from exotic and native tonewoods sourced responsibly. No clear-cut trees are used in these instruments. Breedlove uses salvaged and individually harvested timber, with deep relationships with responsible suppliers around the globe. As Breedlove moves 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.

The Concert is Breedlove's 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 all-solid African mahogany top provides a crisp, clean, and warm voice and boasts impressive versatility, taking well to fingerpicking as well as to a more robust strumming attack without losing clarity. 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.

Fishman's Presys I side-mounted Preamp Systems provides supreme sound quality with easy access and usability. These preamps feature Volume, Tone shaping, and Phase controls; pre-wired Fishman Sonicore pickup, and low profile control knobs. The battery box is located on the bottom of the instrument for easy access and quick battery changes.

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.
