Breedlove Discovery Concert CE Acoustic-Electric Guitar Edge Burst

With it's beginner-friendly design the Breedlove Discovery Concert CE Sitka-Mahogany acoustic-electric guitar is a perfect introduction for any aspiring player. It comes with a thinner neck profile with narrow nut width and radiused fretboard to make it easier for first-time players to get used to the feel of sliding up and down the neck while also giving them enough room to reach all the strings more effortlessly. Breedlove also gave the Discovery Concert CE a pinless Delta bridge so when it comes time for string changing, the process is simple and frustrating, saving time, money and patience. Best of all, it has trademark Breedlove tone, so you'll love the way it sounds and want to keep on working on your craft. Making it able to fit in better during live settings, Breedlove equipped it with Fishman electronics for dependable and great-sounding plugged-in performance. Available in the Ghost Burst or Edge Burst enhanced with a herringbone top purfling and rosette.


Solid  Sitka Spruce Top
Along with its body shape, a guitar’s top is the defining element of its sound, driving, through its vibration, the key aspects of volume, tone, sustain and projection. A solid wood top translates those vibrations with more immediacy and purity of tone, and reacts more directly with the intent of a player. Breedlove gave the Discovery Concert CE a Sitka spruce top, the world’s most popular tonewood for tops. Sitka offers the ideal strength-to-weight ratio, yielding a strong fundamental, high-velocity sound with a pleasing elasticity. This makes the Discovery Concert CE acoustic-electric able to handle heavy strumming, light fingerpicking and everything in between.

The Mahogany Body Advantage
Breedlove chose mahogany as the tonewood for the back and sides on the Discovery Concert CE. It's considered one of the classic tonewoods for good reason. Long treasured by cabinetmakers and shipwrights for its simple, straight-grained beauty, strength and workability, mahogany as a tonewood is famous for its clear, strong fundamental, even string-to-string balance and warm midrange emphasis. It pairs perfectly with Sitka spruce, and is a staple combinations for much of American roots music.

Take in a Concert
The Concert, Breedlove’s most popular body shape, was designed 30 years ago and is still going strong. It's favored by discerning players for the versatile, balanced, articulate sound it provides and its easy playing ergonomic comfort, especially this single-cutaway design. Breedlove's flagship platform performs equally well strummed or fingerpicked, and is perfectly poised for accompanying the human voice.

Breedlove Pinless Delta 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. 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.

Breedlove Neck
Breedlove guitar necks feature a slimmer neck profile, which enables comfortable play, even with smaller hands. Unlike traditional dovetail neck joints that require major surgery for a neck re-set, it is easy to adjust the play action and neck angle with the Breedlove bolt-on neck and single-action truss rod. The hand-rubbed, semi-gloss Breedlove neck finish contributes to ideal playability—the finish process alone takes three days, including precise finish coat applications, fine sanding, and hand buffing and rubbing.

Limited Lifetime Warranty
Breedlove players around the world can attest: With consistent, proper care, your Breedlove will give you a lifetime of service—and inspiration. This Discovery Concert CE acoustic-electric guitar is warranted to be free of defects in materials and workmanship throughout the lifetime of the original owner. In addition to materials and workmanship, Breedlove offers a two-year warranty on tuning machines and electronics packages.
