Description
For some players, the OM is the perfect guitar. Designed correctly, its body shape can deliver near perfect balance and separation. We designed the MF60e to do exactly that, giving players impressive balance in both tonality and volume across all six strings, making it an articulate and accurate instrument.
Tonally we have balanced the compression available from the smaller body size with a lighter weight X-brace design. This keeps the OM’s round notes and super-fast response, but balances those features with a more open projection. No matter what music or playing style you gravitate to, this all-solid, finely dressed guitar is a true all-rounder with an impressive, eloquent voicing.The MF60e is fitted with the LR Baggs HiFi system.
Alvarez Masterworks Series Series
Alvarez Masterworks series instruments feature all-solid tonewood construction, with additional considerations for top thickness, brace weight, tapering, and back design—all of which add up to the sum total of the instrument’s voice. Featuring forward-shifted, scalloped X bracing, allowing for a slightly larger soundboard area around the bridge to help generate more vibration, Masterworks series instruments are paired with premium components, culminating in powerful voicing, inspiring articulation, and instant response. Alvarez Masterworks acoustic-electric models are outfitted with LR Baggs’ HiFi system, featuring a premium, non-invasive design that pairs dual bridge plate sensors with high-fidelity electronics to provide exceptional balance, definition, and dynamics.
