The Breedlove Quartz OF is an A-Style mandolin, the ‘O’ indicating an Oval body and the F, F Holes. Like other Breedlove mandolins, it has been out of production since 2016. ‘Quartz’ is the term Breedlove assigned to their entry-level US built mandolins. That name is possibly a reference to a mountain not far from the Breedlove shop, then located in Tumalo, Oregon.
Following the basic design pioneered by Orville Gibson in the late 1900’s, the Breedlove Quartz OF A-Style mandolin features the ‘teardrop’ or Oval body design with F holes. The materials are Sitka Spruce for the top, Maple for the sides, back and neck, and Ebony for the fingerboard, bridge and head plate.
