Breedlove Atlas Series AD25/SR Plus Acoustic Electric Guitar with Guardian Hard Shell Case
Superb craftsmanship and stellar tone
The beginnings of Breedlove guitars can be traced to a sun-swept beach in Mexico over 30 years ago, where a young artist and musician named Kim Breedlove decided in the midst of a surfing trip that his life's work would be to create fine stringed instruments. Breedlove studied with master luthiers, and in time used his unique sense of design to create his own instruments. Soon he was among the finest luthiers in the world, and is now the creative force behind the Breedlove Guitar Company. Based in Bend, Oregon, Breedlove aims to fuse modern design with traditional guitar making. Kim designed the Atlas Series to be an affordable way for players to experience the fine craftsmanship and tone that Breedlove guitars embody. Breedlove's AD25 SR Plus is a dreadnought that is bright, bassy and powerful as a result of the solid spruce top and solid rosewood back. The great resonance is also a result of the JLD bridge truss system, pin less bridge, and a small pick guard, which allows for a more resonant top. The AD25 SR Plus has a soft cutaway, which allows easy access all the way up to the eighteenth fret, with the nineteenth and twentieth frets a short reach away, and thus is particularly well-suited for lead players.
Breedlove crafts acoustic instruments that reflect the principles of uncompromising craftsmanship, environmental consciousness, and customer focus. The best aspects of traditional guitar making are fused with new ideas and relevant technology to create instruments with unsurpassed tone, feel, and visual appeal. Ready to plug in, this is the finest in acoustic-electric quality and workmanship, with a reliable, easy-to-use, great-sounding Fishman Classic IV pickup and onboard tuner. The AD25/SR Plus has an ivoroid bound body and neck, abalone body accents, abalone Breedlove Diamond fingerboard inlays, gloss finish, hand-rubbed neck, and gold Grover tuners.
