An AD60ce "Artist Series": The Alvarez Spirit, Ready for the Stage
The AD60ce SPB is part of Alvarez's Artist Series, designed to offer a solid level of craftsmanship and finish in a reliable and inspiring working guitar. Its dreadnought body shape, combined with a cutaway and LR Baggs electronics, makes it particularly suitable for guitarists who alternate between acoustic playing and amplification, both in rehearsals and live performances.
Who Is It For, and What Styles?
Thanks to its comfortable playability (neck-body joint at the 14th fret) and generous nut width, this Alvarez is very well suited for intermediate to advanced players, but remains accessible to a motivated beginner seeking a serious electro-acoustic guitar. It excels in pop, folk, acoustic rock, pick accompaniment, and also performs very well in fingerpicking when a broad and balanced tonal foundation is desired.
Sound Characteristics
The combination of a solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany delivers a sound that is both articulate and warm: clear highs, expressive mids, and full lows, typical of the dreadnought format. The FS6 bracing (forward-shifted and scalloped) enhances resonance and the sense of openness, with a generous volume reserve. When plugged in, the LR Baggs StagePro Bronze electronics (side EQ with tuner) allow quick tonal shaping, while the Element under-saddle pickup preserves the attack and dynamics of playing, ideal for seamless transition from studio to stage without surprises.
Recommended Compatible Accessories
To maintain the original feel and balance, you can opt for a set of strings D'Addario XTAPB1253 (acoustic steel, gauge 12-53), identical to the factory-installed set.
