Description

The AG60ce is an elegant and versatile Grand Auditorium offering instant response with lots of projection for strumming and true clarity for fingerstyle. The Grand Auditorium’s narrow waist helps to accentuate trebles while the wide lower bout generates plenty of air volume for bass response, creating a dynamic and broad tonal landscape. The FS6 forward-shifted bracing pattern allows for a larger soundboard area to heighten vibration, which is aided by a high-quality North American Sitka top and premium components throughout, all working together to deliver an engaging playing experience. This cutaway model allows for easy access up the neck, and is finished in our flawless Shadowburst and fitted with the LR Baggs StagePro Bronze. The StagePro Bronze is a small-footprint side-mounted EQ incorporating the renowned LR Baggs Element under-saddle pickup. This is a low-profile unit with a large backlit tuner, volume, bass and treble controls and phase. The battery box is built into the end pin jack compartment for easy access with a simple push to open and change batteries.

Alvarez Artist Series Series

Exemplifying the brand's commitment to quality materials and careful craftsmanship, Alvarez Artist Series guitars are built to be instantly responsive with ample projection and balance—making each as rewarding as it is inspiring to play. From bi-level bridges to solid bridge plates and neck blocks, every component has been considered and chosen to strike a balance between strength and vibration. Featuring solid-wood tops, which have been further enhanced via Alvarez’s Advanced Tonal Response (ATR) torrefaction, Artist Series models boast increased wood stability and improved resonance.
