Alvarez AF60 Folk Body Acoustic Guitar *Authorized Alvarez Dealer*

You are buying  a new, factory
warranty, Alvarez instrument.  

Hand selected solid tops; forward shifted
scalloped bracing, awesome tone and player experience….

The 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
really release the energy a solid soundboard can generate. Artist
Series is built to do exactly this.

Each model is designed to get the best out
if its components, and for them to work together to produce a tone
and player experience, rarely found in affordable instruments.
These components include our FST2M bracing system, bi-level
bridge, real bone nut and great quality tone woods.

FSTM is a forward shifted X brace design.
Both the X braces and asymmetric tone bars are scalloped. Moving
the system forward allows for a larger soundboard, which is
optimized with a solid maple bridge plate for both strength and
energy.

The sound is warm, open and powerful, and
both the treble and bass registers are clearly present and
balanced in relation to each other. These guitars feel right and
are exciting to play and responsive. Dig in and they shout right
back at you, treat them gently and they whisper and respond
instantly to the lightest strum or pick.

The solid ‘A’ grade Sitka spruce and
cedar tops are hand selected from quarter-sawn wood. This ensures
consistent quality, and its no secret better guitars are made from
better wood. Our tops not only look great but they are stiff and
strong and finely grained.

Starkville, Mississippi is a factory-authorized Alvarez dealer.

Alvarez instruments come with a limited life-time warranty.  See AlvarezGuitars.Com

*  Please note  *

All our guitars have been
personally inspected by us.  We have done set-ups as needed, and we
make sure they play and sound as they should.  

We do not
just grab some cardboard box out of a warehouse and throw it on
UPS.  All our guitars are on display in our store.  

When you
make your purchase, we take it off display, give it a complete inspection,
play it, de-tune it, package it carefully, and ship it on UPS,
insured.  

We have been doing this for over 35 years, and we do it
well.

Our video (below) shows a sunburst AF60.  It is exactly the same as this guitar, except for having a sunburst finish instead of a natural finish.
