Alvarez AMP660ESHB Parlor Acoustic-Electric Guitar Shadow Burst
Description
Alvarez's AMP660ESHB is a modern take on the classic parlor guitar. Boasting a 14th fret neck joint and solid headstock, its elegant shape is matched by the guitar's impressive tone and playability. The solid mahogany top, and mahogany back and sides deliver a balanced acoustic voice with clarity in the highs, mids and lows. For onstage use or recording, the SYS100 active pickup system lets you amplify your sound with the turn of a dial.
Scale Length Provides Added Volume and Sustain
Unlike a traditional parlor guitar, the AMP660ESHB has a 25.5" scale length, which increases string tension to generate more volume and sustain. The result is a parlor-size guitar with a surprisingly powerful voice.
Onboard Electronics Expand Your Options
The built-in SYS100 active pickup system gives you total control over your amplified tone. Adjust the volume and tone to suit any musical situation, from subtle accompaniment to all-out soloing. Plug into your favorite acoustic amp or PA system for performances or record direct to capture the AMP660ESHB's balanced acoustic qualities in your home studio.
Solid Top and Tonewoods Provide Exceptional Tone
A solid mahogany top paired with mahogany back and sides gives the AMP660ESHB a tone that belies its small size. This all-mahogany top and body offers you rich, focused midrange and tight bass. The result is an instrument with clarity, depth and projection suited to any playing style.
Gig Bag Made of Recycled Materials
Sold separately, the optional gig bag provides a stylish and sustainable way to transport your AMP660ESHB. Made of recycled nylon and other post-consumer materials, it has padded handles, pockets for accessories and protects your guitar from the elements.
