Spend just a few moments with any Breedlove crafter and you will quickly learn that their passion for music is matched by only one thing, their obsession with guitars. More than a few keep it going after work, hammering frets and shaving braces in home shops, or playing gigs at local hot spots. You will also learn, depending on whom you talk to, the fastest black diamond slope on Mt. Bachelor, a top-secret fly casting eddy on the Deschutes or the most captivating view from the Farewell Bend trail. Even more than the strings, that lust for life and love of nature might just be the most important element in your Breedlove guitar.
