Alvarez AC70HCE Hybrid Nylon-String Classical Acoustic-Electric Guitar Natural

Description

The AC70HCE is a classical guitar constructed in the traditional sense with a versatile fan-style bracing for clarity and balance across all six strings. It’s a modern instrument that bridges the gap between steel string and nylon string guitars.

The AC70HCE is joined at the 14th fret, making this feel more familiar to steel-string players. It features a narrower nut width than standard and has a radiused fingerguard rather than flat. The Sitka top wood offers a robust, more precise cut that can respond to a heavier attack for volume where needed. This model also features a slim bevel armrest for a more comfortable playing experience while adding a stylish custom vibe to this model.

This guitar is fitted with the LR Baggs StagePro Bronze, 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.
