{"product_id":"alvarez-ac70hce-armrest","title":"Alvarez AC70HCE Artist Hybrid Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Classical Guitar with Armrest (Natural Gloss)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe AC70Hce is a versatile classical guitar constructed in the traditional sense with fan-style bracing for clarity and balance across all six strings. It’s a hybrid - a modern instrument bridging the gap between steel string and nylon string guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 70Hce 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 fingerguard, rather than flat.\u003cbr\u003e\nAll 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 contrast between Sitka and Rosewood creates a classic, sophisticated aesthetic with excellent tonal qualities. Where our Cedar top classical guitars offer a slightly warmer voicing suited to the lighter touch, Sitka delivers a more precise cut that can respond to a heavier attack for volume where needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC70Hce features a slim bevel armrest for a more comfortable playing experience while adding a stylish custom vibe to this model.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe AC70Hce 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. Our goal is to create an instant bond between you and your guitar through meticulous design in bracing, voicing and overall construction.

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+ Sitka Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack and Sides Wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosewood\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\/Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArmrest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Slim Rosewood Bevel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeadstock Facia:\u003c\/strong\u003e East Indian Rosewood\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 Rosewood\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 East Indian Rosewood\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 88\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Depth at Base (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 98\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":49010306253049,"sku":"AC70HCE-ARMREST","price":1199.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/5766\/1177\/files\/AC70Hce-Armrest_Left_3-4.png?v=1788565829","url":"https:\/\/blackoutaudio.com\/products\/alvarez-ac70hce-armrest","provider":"Blackout Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
