collapse expand iconDescription

The Breedlove Discovery S CE concert acoustic-electric guitar provides an inspiring musical experience with sustainably-sourced tonewoods and vibrant sound. This classical guitar features a solid red cedar top and mahogany back and sides, producing a full, balanced tone that resonates freely for any playing style. The mahogany neck and slightly wider nut offer comfortable playability whether you prefer classical or contemporary fingerpicking techniques. When plugged in, the built-in Fishman Presys I electronics accurately convey the Discovery S CE's warm, natural tone with simple controls to shape your amplified sound.

Sustainably-Sourced Tonewoods Create a Vibrant Acoustic Voice

The Discovery S CE's responsibly-harvested red cedar top allows its tight grain to resonate fully, resulting in articulate highs, rich lows and a quick, responsive midrange. Paired with mahogany back and sides, you'll experience a vibrant, full tone suited for any style. The mahogany neck also enhances resonance and playing comfort. Together, these premium tonewoods generate impressive acoustic sound in an eco-friendly build.

Sustain for Days Thanks to Cascade Bracing

Breedlove's Cascade bracing optimizes the Discovery S CE's tonewoods to produce impressive sustain and resonance. By scalloping and tapering the braces, Breedlove's luthiers have crafted a lightweight yet sturdy bracing system. This innovative bracing, inspired by the Cascade Mountains, provides Custom Shop-level sound quality and projection. When you strum a chord, notes ring out with shimmering clarity and sustain.

A Comfortable Neck and Wider Nut Enable Expressive Playability

The mahogany neck and slightly wider nut, common to classical guitars, provide ample space for your fingers to move freely. The comfortable neck and wider string spacing make the Discovery S CE highly playable for any guitarist to express themselves through a classical or contemporary fingerstyle approach.

Fishman Electronics Provide a Natural Amplified Sound

When plugged in, the Discovery S CE's Fishman Presys I electronics accurately convey the guitar's warm, resonant tone. Volume and tone controls let you shape your amplified sound while maintaining the natural acoustic properties. The Presys I system is intuitive, allowing the guitar's premium tonewoods to shine through for an inspiring performance experience.

    This is my first nylon string guitar. It sounds very nice unplugged I haven't gotten a chance to play it plugged in yet but I bet it sounds fantastic. The finish is very sturdy it doesn't scratch easy at all. I really, really like.

  • I would definitely by this BreedLove guitar again

    As a 59 year old beginner, I spent a little more for a guitar that I would be able to play through retirement. That's not to say I wouldn't buy another one, because I have been looking g already.
