Introducing the Breedlove Retro Series. Inspired by the Breedlove Revival designs we begin with four key models with an ear towards tradition. These fine instruments are created with the same level of craftsmanship that have made the award winning Breedlove Atlas Series so highly regarded. That is where the similarities end. The OM and Dreadnought models are extremely quick and powerful for demanding flatpicking, bluegrass and the blues.
The Breedlove Retro Series D/ER, a Pre-war style Dreadnought model instrument, solid Engleman Spruce top, solid Rosewood back and sides, Ivoroid binding with top purfling, Abalone rosette, and an L.R. Baggs Stage Pro, Element Active pickup system with volume and tone controls.
