Breedlove’s sound-optimized X-bracing and meticulous hand-voicing allow the notes to bloom with piano-like clarity, capturing both fingerstyle subtlety and expressive strumming dynamics. An ergonomic Soft C mahogany neck and African ebony fingerboard provide a fluid, modern feel, while integrated LR Baggs HiFi electronics faithfully translate the instrument’s complex acoustic character for the stage. Finished with a Vintage Toner gloss and an ebony pinless bridge, the Roots Rosewood Concert Cutaway is a refined performer built for players who demand both classic elegance and modern sonic authority.
Sitka Spruce and East Indian Rosewood for Harmonically Rich, Balanced Tone
The Roots Rosewood Concert Cutaway’s tonal foundation combines a solid Sitka spruce top with East Indian rosewood back and sides. Sitka spruce delivers clarity, dynamic responsiveness and articulate highs, while rosewood adds warmth, depth and complex harmonic overtones. Breedlove’s sound-optimized X-bracing and hand voicing ensure every note projects evenly and with precision, allowing the guitar to maintain tonal balance under both delicate fingerpicking and full-bodied strumming. The cutaway concert body shape offers a responsive, mid-sized platform that supports nuanced performance while projecting enough presence for stage or studio.
Soft C Mahogany Neck and Ebony Fingerboard for Fluid Playability
The Honduran mahogany neck is carved to Breedlove’s Soft C profile, offering a comfortable, low-profile feel that supports long sessions and effortless transitions across the fretboard. A semi-gloss finish allows smooth hand movement, while the African ebony fingerboard provides a stable, responsive playing surface with precise note articulation across all 20 frets. With a 25.5" scale length and 1.75" nut width, the neck and fingerboard deliver a tactile, natural connection that encourages expressive, confident playing in any position.
LR Baggs HiFi Electronics for Clear, Natural Amplified Tone
Equipped with LR Baggs HiFi electronics, the Roots Rosewood Concert Cutaway translates its acoustic voice into amplified settings with clarity and fidelity. This non-invasive dual bridge plate sensor system captures string energy and top vibration for a balanced, dynamic sound without altering the guitar’s acoustic integrity. A studio-quality preamp provides ample headroom and strong feedback resistance, making it ideal for live performance, recording or rehearsal. The result is a transparent, stage-ready tone that preserves the instrument’s natural richness and responsiveness.
Pinless Ebony Bridge and Understated Appointments for a Streamlined Playing Experience
The pinless ebony bridge allows for quick, reliable string changes without compromising intonation or sustain. A bone nut and saddle enhance clarity and note definition, while the koa rosette, centered dot inlays and Vintage Toner gloss finish offer subtle visual sophistication. Breedlove nickel tuners provide smooth, dependable tuning, and the guitar comes strung with Elixir Phosphor Bronze light-gauge strings. A deluxe brown hardshell case ensures protection and ease of transport, completing this concert acoustic-electric’s professional-grade package.
