Another Steilberg exclusive custom model! We absolutely love the Spirit model Breedlove Mandolin, but wanted to see it in more shapes and styles. So the newest aquisition is this beautiful Breedlove KO (K-style body shape with an oval soundhole). Featuring the upgrade options of the Schertler pickup (for amplification in any situation) and the attractive black binding, you'll bring home a extra value instrument striaght from the hands of Bend, Oregon's finest luthiers. Kim Breedlove himself actually recently remarked how this exact instrument was quite a stellar example of this series of instrument. He's right, it definitely stands out as a great sounding and playing piece for a killer price. Looking for a new mandolin sound? With a deep bassy growl this fine piece has the potential for excelling in many situations - old-time, jazz, celtic, rock, classical, and yes, even bluegrass! Pick it well, friend, you'll love this decision for years to come.
