Alvarez ABT60 Artist Acoustic Baritone Guitar (Natural Gloss)

Tuned from B to B, the ABT60 is pitched between a dreadnought and acoustic bass, giving you deep, sonorous tones. Providing easy playability, chord shapes and scales on this baritone are the same as a standard six-string, only with a lower voicing.

A baritone unlocks new sonic worlds to players at any point in their musical journey, helping you to approach your music in a distinctive way. Baritones are exciting instruments to explore new sounds or accompany vocals.

The FST2 bracing finds the perfect harmony between rigidity and vibration, allowing the top to be both driven and controlled by the air volume this guitar creates. Delivering both balance and liveliness, the symmetry is inspiring for every player.

The ABT60 remains one of our best-selling models. This high-demand instrument is now available in several options with a cutaway, Shadowburst, and even 8 strings.
