The Alvarez MG70ce is an Grand Auditorium bodied guitar from the Masterworks series. Here's a detailed look at its features and specifications:
Summary
- Design and Playability: The MG70ce features a Grand Auditorium shape, providing a perfect balance between a dreadnought's power and a smaller guitar's articulation. This shape is favored for its versatility and comfort, suitable for both strumming and fingerpicking styles. This cutaway model allows for easy access up the neck.
- Tonal Quality: The combination of solid AAA Sitka Spruce for the top and solid East Indian Rosewood for the back and sides delivers a rich, resonant tone with excellent clarity and projection. The FS6 bracing system enhances the guitar's responsiveness and articulation.
