The Blueridge BR-180 dreadnought acoustic guitar delivers a bold, resonant tone that serious guitarists will love. Its solid Sitka spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides produce full-bodied sound with crisp articulation. The BR-180's premium components and traditional design provide an authentic vintage vibe. When you play this guitar, you'll experience the tone and feel of an American classic.

Vintage Materials Create a Powerful Voice

The BR-180's solid Sitka spruce top and rosewood back and sides are materials used in iconic dreadnoughts from the 1930s and '40s. These premium, resonant woods create the guitar's robust tone that projects clearly. The scalloped X-bracing helps the spruce top vibrate freely. Rosewood's density adds richness and depth. Together, these woods shape a dynamic sound with tight bass, warm mids and shimmering highs.

Fast, Comfortable Action Lets You Play with Ease

The slim mahogany neck has a profile modeled after vintage dreadnoughts, providing a fast, low-action feel. Your fingers will glide along the smooth ebony fingerboard. A nut width of 1.6875" gives you room to play full chords without cramping your hand. The neck's sturdy construction ensures stable tuning and intonation even with energetic strumming or flatpicking. Overall, the BR-180's neck design makes it comfortable and satisfying to play.

Premium Appointments Complete the Vintage Aesthetic

With its abalone purfling, abalone fingerboard inlays and gold tuners, the BR-180 looks like a guitar from the 1930s. These high-quality components are as beautiful as they are functional. The abalone adds shimmering detail, the open-gear tuners smoothly and precisely tune your instrument and a dovetail neck joint provides strength and stability. Together with the resonant tonewoods, these features give the BR-180 enticing vintage appeal.
