Few guitars play quite like a Breedlove–and even fewer 12 strings. From woods to voice, this is a beautiful, elegant, and responsive creature. This 1999 MJ22/E 12-string from Breedlove exudes a smoothness both of aesthetic and acoustic proportions: between the Macassar Ebony back and sides and Spruce top and the clean, well-balanced tone, it’s hard to tell which is silkier. The easy playability lends itself to fingerstyle, but a flatpick wouldn’t be out of place on these strings either. Played lightly or by digging in, there are sweet treble to bask in and shimmering octave strings to soak up, with a bottom end that is clean and controlled. Regarding projection, this 12 string’s got it made: it is equally responsive as a singer-songwriter’s quiet harmony or a smoking solist’s number 1 trick.
