Check out this stunning Breedlove ARD-ARVTE, a premium acoustic-electric that showcases Breedlove’s dedication to exceptional tonewoods, refined craftsmanship, and effortless playability.

Featuring a responsive Adirondack spruce top finished in a beautiful Vintage Toner Gloss, paired with East Indian rosewood back and sides, this guitar produces a rich, balanced voice with remarkable clarity, warmth, and projection. Elegant brass inlays, an ebony fingerboard, and Gotoh open-gear tuners complete the refined aesthetic, giving the instrument a timeless look to match its exceptional sound.

Tonally, the Artisan Dreadnought delivers everything you’d expect from a world-class acoustic. The Adirondack top provides incredible headroom and dynamic range, while the rosewood body adds depth, shimmering overtones, and sustain that seems to go on forever. Whether played with a delicate touch or a heavy hand, the guitar responds effortlessly, maintaining outstanding balance, articulation, and that unmistakable Breedlove character.

The comfortable mahogany neck features Breedlove’s Slim “V” profile, making long playing sessions a pleasure. From flatpicking and bluegrass to singer-songwriter accompaniment and fingerstyle arrangements, this guitar feels equally at home in virtually any musical setting.

When it’s time to plug in, the LR Baggs Anthem pickup system faithfully reproduces the guitar’s natural acoustic voice with exceptional realism, making it an outstanding choice for live performance and recording alike. Whether you’re on stage, in the studio, or playing your favorite neighborhood dive bar, this Breedlove is ready to deliver every time.

Beautifully crafted, visually elegant, and sonically inspiring, the Breedlove Artisan Dreadnought ARe is a guitar you’ll reach for again and again.

Simply stunning.
