Here for sale we have an Alvarez MD70ce Dreadnought Electro Acoustic Guitar in Natural Gloss finish. Made in China in 2012, this set-neck constructed guitar consists of a Solid Sitka Spruce top, Rosewood back and sides, a Mahogany neck, and a 20-fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include Grover tuners, X-bracing, an Ebony bridge, and a Alvarez SYS650 Dual Pickup EQ Preamp with side mounted controls.
The Mahogany neck plays very well, with a profile that fills the hand nicely whilst retaining a slim feel, offering comfortable fretting in all registers. The Rosewood fingerboard feels smooth to the touch, and with the 15" radius provides a playing surface capable of a wide variety of playing styles, whilst fretting is a breezy and sumptuous affair in any register, whilst the body design feels great in both seated and standing positions and provides good reach to the higher frets.
This instrument voice is warm and detailed, with the Rosewood back producing a loud and responsive midrange. The Spruce top provides a balanced tone with plenty of low end power and warm detail. The Alvarez SYS650 Dual Pickup EQ preamp and pickup system provides a clear and natural sound that is perfect for both live performances and studio recordings; and with all of the controls you could possibly need right at your fingertips, you can easily dial in the perfect sound for any situation.
