Breedlove Guitars, owned
and operated by Tom Bedell,
handcrafts beautiful acous-
tic guitars. Their mission is
straightforward: to handcraft
the finest acoustic stringed
instruments in the world.
They do not replicate guitar
designs of the past but have
turned to scientific research
to understand how sound
energy is transmitted through
tonewoods, how various ele-
ments in an instrument can
best complement one another,
how to design for playing
comfort and how to meld
every aspect of their instru-
ments into extraordinarily
exquisite musical and visual
design.
The company sells these
handmade instruments
through a network of 300
music retailers across the
U.S. and internationally
through distributors. To learn
