The Alvarez AC65ce offers serious guitar players a rich, resonant nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar. Constructed with a solid A+ Western red cedar top and mahogany back and sides, its tone projects with clarity and depth. The cutaway body provides easy access up the neck, while the Indian laurel fingerboard makes for smooth playability. Finally, an LR Baggs StagePro Bronze pickup system lets you plug in for stunning tone and live performance.

A+ Grade Western Red Cedar

As with all masterfully crafted classical guitars, it starts with the wood. A+ grade Western red cedar, prized for its warmth and quick response, tops the AC65ce. Mahogany, a balanced, full-bodied tonewood, forms the back and sides. Together, these woods vibrate freely to produce the instrument's complex voice. The woods' natural beauty shines through under a high-gloss finish.

Playability and Accessibility

The AC65ce's mahogany neck and Indian laurel fingerboard provide a familiar feel for classical guitarists. Its 25.6" scale length and 2-1/16" nut width give you room to articulate complex chords and melodies. An elegant cutaway provides full access to the upper frets, while the high-gloss finish protects the tonewoods and gives the AC65ce a stunning visual aesthetic.

LR Baggs StagePro Bronze Pickup System

The AC65ce comes equipped with an LR Baggs StagePro Bronze pickup system, featuring the renowned LR Baggs Element under-saddle transducer. Controls include volume, bass and treble EQ to shape your amplified tone. A built-in tuner ensures you're in tune before stepping into the spotlight. The endpin jack gives you a balanced connection to your amplifier or PA system. When it's time for an encore, you have everything you need in one guitar.

Crafted for Artistry

Fan bracing, a traditional classical guitar design, gives the AC65ce a balanced, articulate voice across all six strings. A bone nut and saddle transfer string vibrations efficiently into the guitar body. D'Addario EXP46N strings provide a warm, mellow tone. All these considered details come together in an instrument made not just for playability but for art. When you're ready to express your musical vision, the Alvarez AC65ce is a faithful companion.
