This Delta 00 stays true to its roots with quarter-sawn, hand-scalloped bracing that sits back from the soundhole for a vintage, slightly compressed tone.
Alvarez Delta 00 Grand Concert
If your songs are craving the complex, organic tones of a 20s or 30s vintage guitar, but you just can't stomach the vintage guitar price tag, you owe it to yourself to check out the new Delta 00. These guitars are true to their vintage roots, and authentic all the way to the core. Unlike other modern smaller-bodied acoustics, the Delta 00's quarter-sawn, hand-sanded scalloped bracing is shifted back (away from the sound hole), staying true to the traditional designs of the time. The result is a slightly compressed throwback tone, but with modern output & projection that lends itself well to both fingerpicking and flatpicking, in standard or alternate tunings. It's got all the snort & grit you'd expect from an old guitar this size, but with better tonal balance. The brilliant high-gloss finish really shows off the beauty of the mahogany back & sides. Throw in a genuine bone nut & saddle, a superior factory setup, and a fit & finish that is unheard of at this price, and the Delta 00 just might wind up being your new favorite songwriting partner!
