{"product_id":"alvarez-ac65hce","title":"Alvarez AC65HCE Artist Hybrid Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Classical Guitar (Natural Gloss)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe AC65Hce is constructed in the traditional sense with fan-style bracing for both clarity and balance across all six strings. A phenomenal hybrid, this modern instrument bridges the gap between steel string and nylon string guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 65Hce is joined at the 14th fret, unlike a traditional classical guitar which is joined at the 12th, making this feel more familiar to steel-string players. It features a narrower nut width than standard classical guitars and has a radiused fingerboard, rather than flat. All carefully considered details culminate in less of a departure from steel string familiarity for those players looking for a nylon string sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC65 features a high-quality Western Red Cedar for a warm voice with an open projection, ideally suited for fingerstyle playing with a quick and clear response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cutaway model allows for easy access up the neck and is fitted with the LR Baggs StagePro Bronze. The StagePro Bronze is a small-footprint side-mounted EQ incorporating the renowned LR Baggs Element under-saddle pickup. This is a low-profile unit with a large backlit tuner, volume, bass and treble controls and phase. The battery box is built into the end pin jack compartment for easy access with a simple push to open and change batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Artist Series\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlvarez Artist Series represents our commitment to quality and care.

For a more focused, woody tone, choose a Mahogany top. For a broader, more open projection, choose Sitka. For a warm response to a lighter, melodic touch, choose Cedar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid A+ Western Red Cedar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack and Sides Wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e African Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural\/Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack \u0026amp; Sides Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural\/Semi Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadstock Facia:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indian Laurel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Classical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e African Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePick Up\/EQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e LR Baggs StagePro Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional Fan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indian Laurel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlays:\u003c\/strong\u003e MOP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Indian Laurel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut and Saddle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chrome Plate w\/Black Buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrings:\u003c\/strong\u003e D'Addario EXP46N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Meets Body:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14th Fret\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Frets:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1032\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Width (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 374\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Depth at Heel (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 96\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Depth at Base (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 104\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 650\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale (inches):\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 19\/32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width (inches):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 7\/8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Alvarez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49010306187513,"sku":"AC65HCE","price":929.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/5766\/1177\/files\/AC65Hce_Left_3-4.png?v=1788565814","url":"https:\/\/blackoutaudio.com\/products\/alvarez-ac65hce","provider":"Blackout Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
