Breedlove Masterclass Jumbo Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Adirondack Spruce and Figured Ziricote, LR Baggs Preamp

Breedlove's Masterclass series guitars are some of the richest sounding and best playing acoustic instruments on the market, and they're also some of the most creative. Unique tone wood choices and innovative build designs give these guitars an unmistakable aesthetic and tonal identity. This is the best of the best from what the fine guys and gals over at Breedlove have to offer. This represents the highest quality materials and craftsmanship that money can buy in an acoustic guitar.

This Jumbo model is the biggest and baddest of them all, yet it's still super comfortable to play. You really don't feel like you're wrestling a giant while wrapping your arms around this beauty. It's got to be one of the most ergonomic Jumbo designs we've come across with a design that feels comfortable but is as full of tone as anything you'll ever hear. The low end is mighty without being overwhelming and the top end is cutting without being shrill.

If you like having a strong bass response, balanced mids, and a top end that shines through, then this is exactly the guitar you're looking for. It's very powerful in the low end but it doesn't get muddy. The bass notes stay tight and are very pronounced. There's enough midrange coming from the Honduran neck and ziricote back and sides so that your sound doesn't end up being massively mid-scooped. The balance in the natural EQ of this guitar is wonderful. It's warm and sweet while still having the brightness that you'll want to cut through without being sounding harsh.

It radiates that custom-shop vibe: precise, meticulous and perfectly balanced both tonally and structurally. The sound is full-bodied and full of color, with a bell-like quality to the overtones that gives chords a glowing quality as they ring out. I love the feel of this guitar. The fretboard is smooth and the neck is easy to navigate, but what really blows me away is the way that the entire body reacts to everything you do. Pick even just a single note, and the whole guitar wakes up and vibrates against your body. The pickup system is unobtrusive and highly effective - you'll hear all of that acoustic tonal nuance in the amplified sound. In short, this is one of those lifelong acoustics that will be equally effective on stage, in the studio and in the bedroom for decades to come.

For the aggressive player seeking a stunning, collectible heirloom-quality jumbo that will fill the room with a big, dynamic voice. The Masterclass Jumbo is the granddaddy of all flatpicking guitars, combining a set of world-class tonewoods that work in unison to deliver rich, distinctively crafted sound: a substantial low-end presence delivered by the ziricote back and sides, combined with an Adirondack spruce top that will only get better as it ages. This fine instrument along with all other Masterclass, Exotic and Custom Sound Studio Series instruments are available exclusively in the USA through our Distinctive Dealers
