Academy Award®-winning actor, musician and environmentalist Jeff Bridges and Breedlove owner Tom Bedell came together over their mutual concern for our one planet, with an understanding that beautiful musical instruments could be made with an eye towards preserving the world’s great forests, their habitats and the communities living within them.

The result is a stunning, rich sounding US-made guitar handcrafted entirely from sustainable woods, and featuring Bridges’ “All in this Together” motto inlaid across its fretboard, along with his signature inlaid on the rear of the eastern Hard Rock maple neck’s Wave headstock.

Co-designed with acoustician and Jeff Bridges & The Abiders musical director Chris Pelonis, the Breedlove Jeff Bridges Signature Model is a soft cutaway large body Concerto ready for a heavy play style, but with all the exquisite nuance of a highly figured 3A grade native Oregon myrtlewood top, back and sides.

Gnarly, windblown and sea-sprayed, myrtlewood, found along the Oregon coast, is one of the most sustainable tonewoods available today. Its use in music was pioneered by Breedlove, which promises to employ no clear-cut woods in any of its Made in Bend instruments.

Powerful and responsive like a dreadnought, tonally the acoustic electric Breedlove Jeff Bridges Signature Model emphasizes the unique qualities of myrtle, with a deep rosewood-like bass, the fundamental clarity of mahogany and the enchanting shimmer of koa.

Available only from Lost Chord Guitars in Solvang, Calif., seven percent of royalties from each sale go directly to Amazon Conservation Team, which works in partnership with indigenous colleagues to protect rainforests and traditional culture. 

This comfortable, easy-playing, Sound Optimized®, hand voiced instrument is appointed with a herringbone rosette and purfling, accenting a high gloss Bourbon Burst finish, with gold tuners and strap button. Each instrument, fitted with a signature gigbag, is furnished with an inside label and certificate of authenticity signed by Jeff Bridges, who reminds us we are “All in this Together.”
