Founded in 1990 by luthiers Larry Breedlove and Steve Henderson — both former Taylor Guitars craftsmen — Breedlove Guitars is an acoustic instrument maker headquartered in Bend, Oregon. The company is known for its distinctive body shapes, including the Concert, Concerto, Concertina, and Companion, as well as its proprietary Sound Optimization voicing process. Breedlove's USA Custom Shop produces handmade instruments, while its import lines (including the Organic, Pursuit, and Discovery series) make the brand accessible at a range of price points. The company also holds one of the world's largest legal collections of Brazilian Rosewood.

Breedlove's catalog spans acoustic guitars, 12-string guitars, acoustic bass guitars, and ukuleles. Signature and artist-associated models have included collaborations with actor and musician Jeff Bridges and Grammy-winning fingerstyle guitarist Ed Gerhard. The brand has carved out a strong following among fingerstyle, folk, and Americana players who gravitate toward its ergonomic designs and tonal versatility. Breedlove also produces the companion brand Bedell Guitars under the same ownership.

Breedlove has 143 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Acoustic-Electric Guitars, Steel-string Acoustic Guitars, and Mandolins. Their gear is featured by 15 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Folk, World, & Country, and Pop. Notable users include Gretchen Menn, Ed Roland, and Dave Mustaine. Most Breedlove products fall in the mid-tier range — professional-grade without flagship pricing.
