If you’re searching for a hardworking acoustic guitar built by discerning hands, you can’t go wrong with the Alvarez Masterworks 70 Custom Grand Auditorium from Sweetwater!Thoughtful spruce and rosewood tonewood design Bold back and sides carved from solid East Indian rosewood give the Masterworks 70 Custom Grand Auditorium warm, pleasing tone with significant balance and sonority. Paired with that is an ultra-premium top carved from solid AAA Sitka spruce. This lightweight resonant top gives the guitar a strong bump in projection and sustain, as well as a nimble response to player dynamics. Together, these tonewoods create a guitar that’s fiercely articulate and especially suited for recording or gigs.Comfortable design from the neck down The Masterworks 70 Custom Grand Auditorium is comfortable from the neck down, with design features that ensure comfortable performance from start to finish. Great tonewoods mean little if they aren’t comfortable, and that’s why the Masterworks 70 Custom Grand Auditorium features a premium neck crafted from hardwood mahogany. Not only is mahogany a favored tonewood in the acoustic world, but this neck is also further enhanced with a hybrid soft “V” to “C” shape. Alvarez carefully developed this blended neck profile that gives you ideal anchor space in any position. Toward the headstock, the “V” shape yields a better grip for 6-string open and barre chords; further up, the “C” shape gives hands more room for expression and thinking outside the box.Hardware details that make a difference This guitar spares no detail, even when it comes to the small things. A plethora of premium onboard hardware ensures this guitar is both beautiful and rugged, so you can rely on it for years to come. A true bone nut and saddle paired with ebony bridge pins maximize the vibrational transfer from strings to body and ensure you’re getting the purest tone possible out of the body and top. Meanwhile, the Masterworks 70 Custom Grand Auditorium’s Alvarez tuners offer a precise 20:1 tuning ratio which means powerful tuning stability and less time spent tuning when you do have to tune. And the perks don’t stop there! This guitar also includes purfling and binding made with genuine herringbone detail and ebony, plus a deluxe headstock with an Indian rosewood overlay and a mother-of-pearl inlay.LR Baggs’ HiFi amplification The LR Baggs HiFi system is everything players want in an acoustic-electric pickup: balanced sound, non-invasive design, and an impressive resistance to feedback. The system is beyond reliable and offers 700+ hours of use on just a single 9V battery. Consisting of a HiFi preamp, two bridge plate sensors, a discrete endpin jack, and volume and tone controls, the HiFi’s magic lies in how the system preserves acoustic integrity. Just look at the bridge plate sensors, which use materials and placement that listen to acoustic movement and tonewoods without dampening natural resonance. These sensors are guests of the sound chamber, not intruders, and what you hear is your guitar’s inherent sound and nothing more.Alvarez Masterworks 70 Custom Grand Auditorium Acoustic-electric Features: Beautiful grand auditorium acoustic-electric guitar with smooth contours, clear bass, and shimmering mid to high-end tones AAA Sitka spruce top delivers incredible vibrant tone with strong volume and classic response Gloss-finished solid East Indian rosewood back and sides shape tone with warm projection and lasting sustain Body cutaway ensures additional upper-fret access Mahogany neck with hybrid soft “V” to “C” shape for maximum playability up and down the neck Supple Indian rosewood fingerboard with 12th-fret inlay made from mother-of-pearl and paua abalone Crafted dovetail neck joint enhances tone and vibrational transfer from strings to body Forward Shifted spruce bracing fuels even response across highs, mids, and lows Onboard LR Baggs HiFi preamp with built-in dynamic EQ Hardwood bridge crafted from Indian rosewood Deluxe headstock with Indian rosewood overlay and mother-of-pearl inlay Upscale hardware, including bone nut and saddle, enhance vibrational transfer for better tone Alvarez tuners with precision 20:1 ratio ensure fast tuning and strong stability Premium purfling and binding made from herringbone and ebony SpecificationDetail String Type Steel Number of Strings 6 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape Grand Auditorium Back & Sides Wood East Indian Rosewood Top Wood Solid AAA Sitka Spruce Top Finish Gloss Color Shadowburst Body Bracing FS6 Forward Shifted Binding Herringbone Neck Wood Mahogany Neck Shape Soft V to a C shape Radius 14.96" Fingerboard Material Indian Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Abaline and Mother of Pearl Number of Frets 21, Nickel Silver Scale Length 25.5" Nut Width 1.75" Nut/Saddle Material Bone/Bone Bridge Material Indian Rosewood Tuning Machines Alvarez, 20:1 Electronics LR Baggs HiFi preamp, Bridge Plate transducer Strings D'Addario XTAPB1253, .012-.053 Case/Gig Bag Gig Bag RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
