Breedlove Lu'au Concert 'Ghost' Acoustic Electric Ukulele

To relax from his day gig as a master guitar builder, Kim Breedlove used to escape home and burn the midnight oil while dreaming of Hawaii and creating high-end ukuleles from native, bright, yet deep-sounding Oregon myrtlewood, which offers an even richer sound than traditional koa and mahogany. Those groundbreaking designs, developed in his garage workshop and boasting essential sonic improvements alongside remarkably fluid playability, serve as the basis for a new acoustic and acoustic/electric line of classy, powerful - and colorful - Breedlove Lu'au Ukuleles

Features:

Concert Body

Slightly Larger that the original diminutive Hawaiian soprano, the Concert size is considered by many to be the perfect ukulele. It retains the delightful pingy sound of its small cousin, but its longer 15" scale allows for easier fretting, while its marginally wider body provides more tone and volume while still tucking comfortably beneath a strummer's elbow.

Myrtlewood

Popularized by Breedlove, myrtlewood, from the windblown Oregon coast, combines the best elements of rosewood, mahogany and maple - rich bass, warm midrange and clear, bright trebles - for truly versatile guitars. Each sonically distinct instrument is individualized by the gnarled, wildly varied, but always arresting grain patterns.

Limited Lifetime Warranty

New Breedlove instruments, purchased through an authorized Breedlove dealer, are warranted to be free of defects in materials and workmanship throughout the lifetime of the original owner.
