The Alvarez MG60CE Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar offers a bold yet balanced tone with effortless playability. This all-solid guitar features an AAA Sitka spruce top and African mahogany back and sides, producing a robust low end, rich mids and bright highs. Its grand auditorium body shape provides an open, full sound with clear projection. The soft mahogany neck and 12" radius ebony fingerboard feel smooth and comfortable under your fingers.

Resonant Tonewoods

The MG60CE's solid Sitka spruce top and mahogany back and sides generate a tone that is both powerful and nuanced. The spruce top produces crisp articulation and bell-like highs. The mahogany adds warmth and depth, creating a balanced sound across the frequency spectrum. Together, these tonewoods give you a responsive, versatile voice for any musical style.

Play with Ease

The grand auditorium shape and soft mahogany neck provide a comfortable playing experience. The wider lower bout offers more bass resonance than a typical dreadnought. A slim, easy-playing neck profile lets you glide smoothly up and down the ebony fingerboard. A cutaway gives you full access to upper frets. Whether fingerpicking or flatpicking, the MG60CE handles with grace and precision under your fingers.

Plug in and Shape Your Tone

The MG60CE comes equipped with an L.R. Baggs VTC pickup system with an Element undersaddle pickup and soundhole-mounted preamp with volume and tone controls. The Element pickup accurately translates the guitar's natural acoustic tone when plugged in. Use the onboard preamp to tailor the EQ to your needs. This versatile system gives you tonal flexibility for any live performance or recording situation.

Premium Appointments

Binding, inlays and hardware are appointed to professional standards. Ivoroid binding adds an elegant touch. Pearloid dots mark the fingerboard for easy reference. Die-cast chrome tuners provide stable, slip-free tuning. A matching pickguard protects the top from scratches. All parts are fitted for high quality and longevity. The MG60CE combines premium materials with solid craftsmanship for an acoustic-electric guitar built to last a lifetime.
