Breedlove Guitars were founded by Larry Breedlove and Steve Henderson, two pioneering luthiers.
The Visionary Founders
In 1990, Larry Breedlove and Steve Henderson, both experienced luthiers, made a significant decision that would shape the acoustic guitar landscape. They chose to depart from their established positions at Taylor Guitars, a renowned company based in San Diego County. Their ambition was to create their own unique line of instruments, leading them to establish their business, Breedlove Guitars, in the picturesque mountains of the Pacific Northwest.
This move marked the genesis of a brand celebrated for its distinctive approach to acoustic guitar design and craftsmanship. Their commitment to innovation and quality laid the groundwork for Breedlove Guitars to become a respected name among musicians and guitar enthusiasts.
The Breedlove Legacy
Since its inception, Breedlove Guitars has continued to develop and produce a wide range of acoustic instruments, focusing on sustainable practices and unique tonal characteristics. The company is known for its original body shapes, wood selection, and construction techniques, all aimed at enhancing the player's experience.
