{"product_id":"alvarez-md66ce-shadowburst","title":"Alvarez MD66CE Masterworks Dreadnought Cutaway Acoustic-Electric Guitar (Shadowburst)","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith solid African Mahogany construction throughout, the MD66ce dreadnought produces a warm, woody voice with an excellent, clear bass response and warm, glistening trebles. The MD66ce is powerful and responsive, and it absolutely delivers across the lower and upper middle frequencies for a very connected feeling when playing. The FS6 bracing structure produces an excellent ratio between strength and vibration which affords the Mahogany top the movement to generate a broader frequency response than is often associated with Mahogany guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough undertested in aesthetic design, the MD66ce has a premium look and feel, with first-class materials and components, select shell inlays and a flawless, thin poly finish shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MD66ce 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 the Alvarez Masterworks Series\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaking a guitar from all-solid wood delivers strong tonal benefits, and we approach the design of Masterworks to embrace all of them. Top thickness, brace weight and tapering, back design and wood choice all count, and when each is considered as a part of the sum total of the instrument’s voice, great articulation and quality of tone is achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur FS6 bracing system is a forward-shifted, scalloped X allowing for a slightly larger soundboard area around the bridge. This helps generate more vibration, which is heightened by AAA soundboards and premium components throughout, culminating in powerful voicing, inspiring articulation and instant response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMasterworks acoustic-electric models are fitted with the LR Baggs HiFi system. HiFi is a premium, non-invasive design that pairs dual bridge plate sensors with high-fidelity electronics, providing exceptional balance, definition and dynamics. Due to the closed sensor design, HiFi also has excellent feedback resistance and its built-in, studio-quality preamp is voiced to compliment the pickups for an optimal plug-and-play experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll Masterworks ship with our durable AFC30 Flexicase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid African Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack and Sides Wood:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid African Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Color:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shadowburst\/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\u003eHeadstock Facia:\u003c\/strong\u003e East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Pins:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dreadnought\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e African Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase or Bag:\u003c\/strong\u003e AFC30\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracing:\u003c\/strong\u003e FS6\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bi-Level Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlays:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium 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 Premium Open Gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrings:\u003c\/strong\u003e D’Addario XSAPB1253\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 21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePickup \/ EQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e LR Baggs HiFi\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 1042\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Width (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 395\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Depth at Heel (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Depth at Base (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 122\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 648\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale (inches):\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 1\/2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width (mm):\u003c\/strong\u003e 44.45\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width (inches):\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 3\/4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Alvarez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49010311495929,"sku":"MD66CE-SHADOWBURST","price":1599.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0746\/5766\/1177\/files\/MD66ce-Shadowburst_Left_3-4.png?v=1788566582","url":"https:\/\/blackoutaudio.com\/products\/alvarez-md66ce-shadowburst","provider":"Blackout Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
