Roots Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar – Sitka/Mahogany Edgeburst

Breedlove Roots Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar – Sitka Spruce / Honduran Mahogany Edgeburst

Handcrafted in Bend, Oregon, the Breedlove Roots Dreadnought is a USA-made acoustic-electric built for players who want serious tone, stage-ready electronics, and heirloom-quality construction. The combination of a solid Sitka spruce top and solid Honduran mahogany back and sides produces a voice that is bold, warm, and richly articulate — with the projection to fill any room and the nuance to reward close listening.

American Craftsmanship, Stage-Ready Performance

The Roots Dreadnought is part of Breedlove’s American-made lineup, built by hand at their workshop in Bend, OR. The satin edgeburst finish is understated and elegant, letting the tonewoods speak for themselves. Paired with the LR Baggs HiFi pickup system, this guitar translates its acoustic voice faithfully to any PA or amp — no compromises, no coloration.

Key Features

• Solid Sitka Spruce Top — The gold standard for dreadnought projection. Stiff, responsive, and built to open up beautifully with age. Finished in a satin edgeburst.
