Hand-built in Bend, Oregon, this USA-made parlor is crafted entirely from Honduran mahogany, producing a naturally compressed, mellow response with rich midrange presence and smooth, rounded highs. Breedlove’s sound-optimized X-bracing and meticulous hand-voicing allow the guitar to respond effortlessly to touch, while a Slim C mahogany neck and African ebony fingerboard offer a relaxed, fluid playing feel. Outfitted with stage-ready LR Baggs HiFi electronics, the Roots All-Mahogany Parlor provides a transparent, high-fidelity signal that faithfully captures its intimate acoustic warmth in any setting. Elegant appointments—including a smooth satin finish, koa rosette and an ebony pinless bridge—complete this professional-grade workhorse built for players who value character and nuance.
All-Mahogany Construction for Warm, Focused Tone
The Roots All-Mahogany Parlor derives its distinctive character from a solid Honduran mahogany top paired with Honduran mahogany back and sides, creating a cohesive, unified tonal response. Mahogany emphasizes strong fundamentals, warm mids and controlled overtones, resulting in a voice that feels direct, woody and intimate. Breedlove’s sound-optimized X-bracing and hand-voicing enhance projection and balance, allowing the parlor body to speak clearly without excessive brightness. The result is a guitar that delivers classic, vintage-inspired warmth with enough clarity and punch to remain expressive across a wide range of dynamics.
Slim C Mahogany Neck and Ebony Fingerboard for Relaxed Playability
The Honduran mahogany neck is shaped to Breedlove’s Slim C profile, offering a comfortable, low-profile feel that supports relaxed fretting and smooth transitions along the neck. A semi-gloss finish encourages effortless hand movement, while the African ebony fingerboard provides a stable, responsive playing surface with clear note articulation across all 18 frets. With a 25" scale length and 1.75" nut width, the neck and fingerboard strike an ideal balance between precision and comfort, making the Roots All-Mahogany Parlor especially inviting for extended, unplugged sessions.
LR Baggs HiFi Electronics for Faithful Amplified Warmth
LR Baggs HiFi electronics faithfully capture the Roots All-Mahogany Parlor’s natural warmth and dynamic nuance when amplified. The non-invasive dual bridge plate sensor design translates both string energy and top vibration, preserving the guitar’s organic response without altering its acoustic integrity. A studio-quality preamp provides ample headroom and strong feedback resistance, making the system well suited for live performance, recording or casual plug-and-play use. The result is a clear, balanced amplified tone that retains the instrument’s woody character and intimate voice in any setting.
Pinless Ebony Bridge and Elegantly Understated Appointments
An African ebony pinless bridge allows for quick, reliable string changes while maintaining sustain and tonal clarity. A bone nut and saddle enhance note definition and resonance, while Breedlove nickel tuners offer smooth, dependable tuning stability. Visual details remain refined and minimal, including a koa rosette, centered dot inlays and a satin chocolate finish that highlights the natural beauty of the mahogany. Strung with Elixir Phosphor Bronze light-gauge strings and shipped in a deluxe brown hardshell case, this parlor is thoughtfully finished for everyday inspiration.
