This sustainable Designed in Bend Breedlove Discovery S Concert CE&mdash;a first guitar that will last a lifetime&mdash;is crafted with earth-conscious, sonically superior EcoTonewood technology, and invites a variety of playing styles, bold and gentle. A slim, fast neck and narrow nut width facilitate easy, comfortable play, while a pinless delta bridge makes string changing a breeze. A simple natural finish allows the solid top&rsquo;s raw beauty to shine and African mahogany back and sides add warmth and clarity. Discover the Breedlove ECO Collection&mdash;where the guitar meets the forest.</p> <p><strong>SUSTAINABLE &amp; CLEAR CUT FREE<br /></strong>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.</p> <p><strong>MAHOGANY BACK &amp; SIDES</strong><br />Long treasured by cabinetmakers and shipwrights for its simple, straight-grained beauty, strength and workability, mahogany&mdash;used in tops, backs, sides and necks&mdash;is also one of the true classic tonewoods, famous for its clear, strong fundamental; even string-to-string balance; and warm midrange emphasis. Mahogany pairs well with spruce tops as well as with itself in single species guitars&mdash;and both combinations define much of American roots music.</p> <p><strong>EUROPEAN SPRUCE TOP</strong><br />Starting in late June 2022, this model will transition at retail from Sitka spruce to European spruce as we continually work to update our guitars with the most sustainable sourcing available on the market. Rest assured any ECO Collection guitar uses only fully sustainable, clear-cut free tonewoods.</p> <h3>SPECIFICATIONS</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Body Type:</strong>&nbsp;Concert</li> <li><strong>Neck Wood:</strong>&nbsp;African Mahogany</li> <li><strong>Solid Wood Top:</strong>&nbsp;Sitka Spruce</li> <li><strong>Layered Back &amp; Sides:</strong>&nbsp;African Mahogany</li> <li><strong>Top Finish:</strong>&nbsp;Natural Gloss</li> <li><strong>Back &amp; Side Finish:</strong>&nbsp;Natural Gloss</li> <li><strong>Fretboard:</strong>&nbsp;Ovangkol</li> <li><strong>Number of Frets:</strong>&nbsp;20</li> <li><strong>Nut Width:</strong>&nbsp;1.69"</li> <li><strong>Tuners Hardware:</strong>&nbsp;Chrome Closed Gear</li> <li><strong>Lower Bout Width:</strong>&nbsp;15.37"</li> <li><strong>Waist Width:</strong>&nbsp;9"</li> <li><strong>Upper Bout Width:</strong>&nbsp;11.28"</li> <li><strong>Body Length:</strong>&nbsp;19.875"</li> <li><strong>Body Depth:</strong>&nbsp;3.58" (Neck), 4.2" (Tailblock)</li> <li><strong>String Gauge:</strong>&nbsp;D'Addario XT PB Light</li> <li><strong>Bridge:</strong>&nbsp;Ovangkol</li> <li><strong>Binding:</strong>&nbsp;Black</li> <li><strong>Inlay:</strong>&nbsp;Centered Dots</li> <li><strong>Case:</strong>&nbsp;N/A</li> <li><strong>Scale Length:</strong>&nbsp;25.3&rdquo;</li> <li><strong>Sound Hole Diameter:</strong>&nbsp;3.94&rdquo;</li> <li><strong>Crafted In:</strong>&nbsp;Designed in Bend, OR USA.
