The Laureate Series: The Spirit of Vintage Acoustics with Alvarez's High Standards

With the Laureate series, Alvarez revisits the great traditions of early 20th-century acoustic guitars while incorporating a modern manufacturing approach. Every design choice aims to combine refined aesthetics, playing comfort, and rich tone, with special attention to projection and precision. The LD70e Daybreak embodies this philosophy: a dreadnought inspired by classics but crafted to meet today's expectations, both in the studio and on stage.

Who Is the LD70e For, and Which Styles Does It Excel In?

Thanks to its dreadnought body shape and solid woods, the Laureate LD70e is especially suited for intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking an expressive acoustic capable of handling aggressive playing while remaining nuanced. It excels at strumming (folk, pop, acoustic rock, country) by filling the space with solid low end, yet remains clear and defined for fingerpicking and more delicate accompaniments. Its LR Baggs electronics simplify stage use, delivering a natural and mix-friendly sound.

Tone

The AAAA grade solid Sitka spruce top provides a crisp attack, excellent dynamic range, and beautiful clarity in the highs, ideal for highlighting both pick attack and finger nuances. The solid Indian rosewood back and sides enrich the spectrum with deep lows, generous harmonics, and ample sustain, creating the "broad" and enveloping feel typical of high-end dreadnoughts. The FS6 bracing contributes to the balance between power and precision, while the ebony (fingerboard, bridge, pins) enhances the sense of direct response. The bone nuts help define notes and transmit vibrations effectively.

Recommended Compatible Accessories

For amplified use, a 6.35 mm mono instrument cable is suitable for connecting the guitar to an acoustic amplifier, DI box, or mixing console. As a replacement, you can also keep the original string set reference: D'Addario XSAPB1253.
