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 oneyou'lll see why. A great guitar to play.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis caring approach to development comes from one simple goal: To deliver the best guitars in the market at every price point, instruments that are truly amazing value and offer a fantastic player experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe believe our multi award winning Artist Series is one of the finest solid top guitar lines in the world today and demonstrates our commitment to design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe term “solid top” of course refers to the soundboard of an acoustic guitar being made of solid wood, rather than being laminated. However, just because the top is solid, it does not necessarily mean the sound automatically benefits from this feature. The tone of the instrument only improves significantly when the whole guitar is built correctly to optimize the energy a solid soundboard can generate. Artist Series is built to do exactly this.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFST2 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Artist Series sound and personality is open and powerful. FST2 also creates very good balance so both the treble and bass registers are clearly present and balanced in relation to each other.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtist Series feel right and are exciting to play; no matter if you are strumming hard or picking lightly, the guitar will do what you ask of it. For a more focused sound with fewer overtones, choose a mahogany top. For power, go for Sitka. For warmth and response to a lighter touch, choose a Cedar top.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll of our tops are selected by our team and graded independently of our suppliers. If it isn't worthy, we won't use it. Top quality improves as you move up the Artist Series models but all are stiff and finely grained.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlong with a more angled headstock, our bi-level bridge increases string tension by making the break angel of the strings from the saddle to the top more acute. Improved string tension adds to our sound, feel and response, which are also heightened by the use of real bone nuts and saddles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtist Series also demonstrates our great finishing capabilities; the gloss models have a clear deep shine from a finish that is applied as thinly as possible, again to help optimize tone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThank you for choosing Alvarez.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', Roboto, 'Segoe UI', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;

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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis acoustic electric model is fitted with the fantastic LR Baggs Element pick up and StagePro EQ for optimal live performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis caring approach to development comes from one simple goal: To deliver the best guitars in the market at every price point, instruments that are truly amazing value and offer a fantastic player experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe believe our multi award winning Artist Series is one of the finest solid top guitar lines in the world today and demonstrates our commitment to design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe term “solid top” of course refers to the soundboard of an acoustic guitar being made of solid wood, rather than being laminated. However, just because the top is solid, it does not necessarily mean the sound automatically benefits from this feature. The tone of the instrument only improves significantly when the whole guitar is built correctly to optimize the energy a solid soundboard can generate. Artist Series is built to do exactly this.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFST2 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Artist Series sound and personality is open and powerful. FST2 also creates very good balance so both the treble and bass registers are clearly present and balanced in relation to each other.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtist Series feel right and are exciting to play; no matter if you are strumming hard or picking lightly, the guitar will do what you ask of it. For a more focused sound with fewer overtones, choose a mahogany top. For power, go for Sitka. For warmth and response to a lighter touch, choose a Cedar top.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll of our tops are selected by our team and graded independently of our suppliers. If it isn't worthy, we won't use it. Top quality improves as you move up the Artist Series models but all are stiff and finely grained.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlong with a more angled headstock, our bi-level bridge increases string tension by making the break angel of the strings from the saddle to the top more acute. Improved string tension adds to our sound, feel and response, which are also heightened by the use of real bone nuts and saddles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtist Series also demonstrates our great finishing capabilities; the gloss models have a clear deep shine from a finish that is applied as thinly as possible, again to help optimize tone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThank you for choosing Alvarez.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Alvarez","offers":[{"title":"Natural","offer_id":32788147306540,"sku":"Alvarez Artist ABT60E Baritone Acoustic Electric Guitar","price":499.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0324\/7567\/6716\/products\/ABT60E-Front-1.jpg?v=1583965452"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0324\/7567\/6716\/collections\/ABT60_Front-1.jpg?v=1583958147","url":"https:\/\/pelicanbeachmusic.com\/fr\/collections\/acoustic-baritone-guitar\/alvarez.oembed","provider":"Pelican Beach Music LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
