In between a GA and a GC size, I guess.

The Concerto is similar to the Taylor GA:
Breedlove Concerto:
- Body Length: 20.7″
- Body Width: 16″
- Body Depth: 5″
- Upper bout: 11.75"
- Waist: 9.4"
Taylor GA:
- Body Length: 20″
- Body Width: 16″
- Body Depth: 4.6″
- Upper bout: 11.6"
- Waist: 9.6"

The Concert is similar to the GC:
Breedlove Concert:
- Body Length: 19.9″
- Body Width: 15.4″
- Body Depth: 4.5″
- Upper bout: 11.3"
- Waist: 9"
Taylor GC:
- Body Length: 19.5″
- Body Width: 15″
- Body Depth: 4.4″
- Upper bout: 11"
- Waist 8.75"

Edit: the Concert and GA are kinda close but the Concert is smaller on every dimension. Basically the four above are listed in order of size haha.

If it helps, as an owner of four modern, Oregon made Breedloves (2017-2021 models made like this one) I'd characterize the tone created by Breedloves current voicing process ("sound optimization" hand voicing) as articulate with good note-for-note definition, a strong bass register, and excellent "in-tune-ness" (euphonics or lack of discordant tones or good intonation, I guess), for a sweeter tone rather than say a guitar with more brash, clashing harmonics. Comparable to the 1990s Taylor's I've owned, but with more to the bass.
