What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Dreadnought body shape Traditional shape and sound; familiar feel
Mahogany back and sides Dry and airy tone; clear, present midrange
Rosewood fretboard Open, warm tone and smooth playing feel
Mahogany top Warm tone with long sustain

Character & personality are really hard to find in an inexpensive acoustic guitar. But the Alvarez AD66CESHB proves that warm, deep bass, taut mids, and a balanced high-end don't necessarily have to be expensive.

At the heart of the AD66CESB's amazing tone is its hand-sanded scalloped bracing, which allows the top to resonate more freely without compromising strength & stability. If you didn't think an inexpensive acoustic could put out this much bottom end, think again!

Alvarez's bi-level bridge puts more down-pressure on the genuine bone saddle, creating a more efficient energy transfer from the strings to the top, giving you more volume than you ever thought possible from a guitar in this price range. A bone nut & rosewood bridge pins keep the good vibrations happening.

Alvarez also refined their neck profile, with a thinner, faster neck that plays easier, yet still feels solid in your hands. The AD66CESHB features an LR Baggs Stage Pro EQ and Element pickup system, known for its big, natural, open tone when plugged in. With all of these pro-caliber features, the AD66CESB sets a new value standard for acoustic guitars.

Verified Customer zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
This guitar is very well made with great quality material. The tone is beautiful and playability is easy. I looked months online trying to decide what guitar I wanted and I chose the Alvarez, due to the fact, you get better quality and constructed guitar for the money. I am extremely happy with my purchase and like the fact Zzounds has a "Play as you Pay" which helps when on a tight budget.
