Alvarez MD70E Herringbone Acoustic Electric Guitar

The MD70e is a market-leading, all-solid Dreadnought designed with the flatpicker and powerful strummer in mind. The MD60 has become one of Alvarez's best-selling guitars, and their Rosewood version takes power and clarity to a new level in the MD70e.

The MD70e’s response is instant, and its notes are clear and robust. The rosewood helps deliver sonorous bass frequencies complemented by shimmering trebles. When strumming, the FS6 bracing system and AAA Sitka top help deliver clarity and separation, and balance is clearly audible across all six strings.

These beautifully dressed guitars pay tribute to traditional Bluegrass instruments with open gear nickel tuners, classic inlays, premium tortoiseshell style pickguard and a flawless gloss finish. The projection and overall breadth of tonal reach of this guitar is outstanding, making it hard to put down for those players looking for a powerful open voicing and instant response. The MD70e is fitted with the LR Baggs HiFi system.
