Western Red Cedar and Mahogany for Warm, Articulate Tone

The RTC-CMe's solid Western red cedar top delivers an immediate, responsive voice that comes alive with a light touch while retaining the warmth and detail needed for expressive playing. Solid mahogany back and sides complement the cedar with focused midrange, punch and clear note definition, creating a balanced tonal character that remains articulate across chords and individual notes alike. Breedlove's Concert body brings these tonewoods together with a versatile, well-proportioned voice that responds naturally to everything from delicate passages to more assertive strumming.

Soft C Mahogany Neck for Smooth, Comfortable Playability

A Honduran mahogany neck with Breedlove's low-profile Soft C shape provides a smooth, inviting feel designed for comfortable playing across the entire fingerboard. Its 1.75" nut width offers ample string spacing for precise fretting and intricate picking, while the 25.5" scale length provides a responsive feel with excellent definition. A smooth African ebony fingerboard with 20 frets completes a player-friendly neck designed to make extended sessions feel natural and effortless.

LR Baggs HiFi Electronics for Natural Plugged-In Sound

Equipped with an LR Baggs HiFi pickup system, the RTC-CMe is ready to bring its warm, detailed acoustic voice to amplified performances and recording setups. Designed to preserve the natural character of the instrument, the HiFi system provides a clear, balanced foundation that allows the nuances of the cedar and mahogany construction to come through when plugged in. Whether performing onstage or capturing ideas in the studio, it gives players a natural-sounding amplified voice that complements the guitar's rich acoustic character.

Understated Appointments With Roots Series Style

The RTC-CMe embraces the Roots Series philosophy with a simple, timeless aesthetic that keeps the focus on premium materials and craftsmanship. A Vintage Toner satin top and stained satin back and sides give the guitar a warm, understated appearance, while a koa rosette, black binding and centered dot inlays provide subtle visual detail. Nickel Breedlove tuners and an African ebony pinless bridge complete the appointments, with the pinless design simplifying string changes while maintaining a clean, refined look. Crafted in Bend, Oregon, the RTC-CMe includes a deluxe hardshell case for dependable protection.
