Acoustic Review takes a look at this affordable small body instrument with cutaway from Breedlove Guitars.
Breedlove say:
With its stylish soft bout, the sustainably-sourced Signature Concertina Copper CE offers you all the sweet, punchy sound of a parlor style guitar with unlimited access to the highest frets. Expand your expression, aided by the easy play and singing tone of a short scale neck that joins the body at the twelfth fret. Round bass, creamy treble—get all-solid-wood tone in an intimate design that lets you play better, sound better and play more.
