The allure of a “pre-war” guitar? Most of that comes from the robust, powerful sound of an Adirondack spruce top. With an unmatched stiffness to weight ratio, Adirondack has put the energy behind hot bluegrass licks since the beginning. Now, coupled with Breedlove’s Sound Optimization, Adirondack is ready to thrill you with a lifetime of playing. And it rewards a heavy attack with an explosive response. There’s nothing like it.
