This is the Awesome Breedlove Signature Companion Copper E Acoustic Electric Guitar

A New Taylor Super Aero Case is Included

Much more than a beach guitar, the Signature Companion Copper E puts all of Breedlove's famous tone and playability into a traveler frame, ready to sling over your shoulder or step on the stage. In every way, the Companion feels like a "real" guitar, because it is, right down to its Natural Sound electronics package, full width nut and slim, fast neck. Developed in Bend, Oregon, with Sound Optimization in mind, this traditional, non-cutaway instrument is your true friend, ready to go wherever you go, and ready to take you places you've never been.

FEATURES

Sustainable & Clear Cut Free

Made from sustainably-sourced exotic and native tonewoods. No clear-cut trees are used in these instruments. Breedlove uses salvaged and individually harvested timber and has deep relationships with responsible suppliers around the globe. As we move towards sustainability across all lines, owner Tom Bedell has visited 15 countries to discover exactly where the wood comes from, how it is selected and harvested, and how this affects the wildlife, the community, the forest and the planet.

Real Solid Tonewoods for Superior Sound

No Richlite or resin impregnated softwoods, no glue-heavy plywoods: just solid real tonewoods for real tone

Natural Sound Electronics

New Breedlove Natural-Sound electronics with volume and tone controls, and easy battery replacement uses 2 x AAA batteries (batteries not included)

Torrefied European Spruce

As a guitar top, European spruce is powerful like Adirondack, clear like Sitka, and complex and responsive like Engelmann, all of which are employed in various Breedlove guitar lines. Torrefaction, a thermal process that artificially ages the wood while also turning it more resilient, makes these instruments explode with vintage tone, singing like an old friend that's been played by a master for 30 years. With the Organic Collection three years in the making Breedlove owner Tom Bedell literally climbed a mountain to be positive that the exotic FSC-certified tonewoods used in the assortment are harvested in responsible ways that respect the earth, while providing for superior tone that will last a lifetime. High in the windblown Swiss Alps, Bedell watched as European spruce trees were individually selected - each yielding many dozens of top sets - with an eye towards keeping the old growth stands robust for decades to come.

African Mahogany

Sometimes called khaya, African mahogany has a familiar crisp, clean and warm voice and boasts an impressive versatility, taking well to fingerpicking as well as to a more robust strumming attack without losing clarity. All mahogany instruments offer a natural compression that delights blues players, folkies, and singer/songwriters.

Companion Body Shape

Historically, serious guitar players on-the-move have faced a rather tough dilemma; contend with the challenges of traveling with a full-size guitar or settle for a more convenient, smaller instrument with traditionally reduced sound quality...the travel guitar.

This guitar went from the factory to their authorized refurbisher, where it received a full multi-point inspection and expert setup - it is ready to play! No repairs were necessary, and no modifications were made except the back of the headstock was gently stamped "USED". I acquired this guitar from the refurbisher, and there has been no other owner. This LIKE NEW guitar has not been played except for setup and testing.

Check-out the videos on YouTube and more information on the company website. This is a Great guitar at a Great Price!

Enjoy!
