About This Listing
Tuned
from B to B, the ABT60E is pitched between a dreadnought and acoustic
bass to give you deep tones with easy playability. Chord shapes and
scales are the same as a standard six string but the voicing is lower.
This is one of Alvarez’s best selling models and within five minutes of
owning one you’ll see why. A great guitar to play.
After 50 years
of making guitars, continual improvement through the use of emerging
technologies, processes, and materials is still at the heart of our
culture. Alvarez guitars are constructed correctly in every sense, from
raw material preparation to construction and manufacturing processes.
Our tone woods are carefully cured; our components such as neck blocks
and wood joints are carefully designed. The painting, sanding and
polishing techniques we use are continually researched and developed,
and our tone is impeccably crafted and married to a stable, consistent
and lively sound box.
Each model is designed to get the best out
if its components, and for them to work together to produce balance,
lively projection and great response. These components include our FST2
bracing system, bi-level rosewood bridge, real bone nut and saddle,
great quality tone woods and thin finish.
FST2 is a forward
shifted X brace design, this means the axis of the X is closer to the
sound hole and therefore creates a larger soundboard area allowing for
more energy and vibration to be harnessed. Both the X braces and
asymmetric tone bars are carefully scalloped. The scalloping design was
the result of years of continual development in our Yairi workshops.
