Expert Crafting
The most popular acoustic guitar body style is the dreadnought due to its classic appearance and great versatility.
As a dreadnought guitar, the Alvarez AD6012CESHB offers a broad range of tones with strong low end, solid mids and articulate highs.
A cutaway to the body of the Alvarez AD6012CESHB provides unencumbered access to the higher frets which is great for solos and other high flying performances.
Spruce is probably the most popular tonewood for acoustic guitars and so Alvarez have fitted the AD6012CESHB with a solid A+ Sitka Spruce top.
Because of its strength and elasticity, Spruce can produce a wide range of tones making the Alvarez AD6012CESHB.
Furthermore, as it is a solid top, you superior tone that will age like a fine wine.
Mahogany has been used for the back and sides, adding some bright highlights to your tone.
All In The Detail
The Mahogany neck of the Alvarez AD6012CESHB has a 50/50 semi-gloss finish for smooth and comfortable playing.
Within the 12-string guitar's body, you'll find a forward shifted x-style bracing design which allows the top to resonate more freely for improved dynamic response and increased volume.
The braces and asymmetric have been scalloped too, further increasing the potential resonance of the solid A+ Sitka Spruce top, and so giving you even more beautiful tone.
Attached to the body of the Alvarez AD6012CESHB 12-string guitar is a Mahogany neck that features a 50/50 semi-gloss finish for quick and comfortable playability.
Fitted to the body of the AD6012CESHB is a Pau Ferro bridge providing great transfer of string energy to the solid Sitka Spruce top.
Furthermore, thanks to its bi-level design it gives you an improved string break angle over the saddle, improving tone and increasing volume.
The saddle and nut are both made from real bone, providing enhanced sustain while adding a beautifully natural brightness to your tone.
LR Baggs Electronics
Thanks to its high-grade LR Baggs electronics, the Alvarez AD6012CESHB sounds fantastic amplified too.
With an LR Baggs Stage Pro preamp installed, you get excellent control over your sound with 3-band EQ and more so you sound great every time at any venue.
Capturing the sound of your guitar is an LR Baggs Element pickup.
Your usual acoustic pickups get their signal by only capturing the string vibration. As a result, your tone is lifeless and uninspiring.
In contrast, the LR Baggs Element pickup also tracks the movement of the soundboard therefore giving you the true tone of your guitar's body and the craftsmanship that went into making it.
As a result, you and your audience will enjoy full-sounding, resonant and vibrant tone that would otherwise have been lost.
Great Value for Money
Great looks, high-end electronics, advanced guitar building techniques and premium wood choices.
Now imagine that at a bargain price and that's exactly what you've got with this incredible 12-string guitar.
Buy the Alvarez AD6012CESHB electro-acoustic 12-string in Shadowburst for a guitar that performs far beyond its modest price tag.
