Alvarez Artist Series 

The Alvarez Artist Series takes a customised approach that adds a unique quality to every instrument in the range. Comprising of classic tonewoods, bevelled armrests on the body, and an overall rich aesthetic, the Artist Series delivers incredible, unparalleled sound and style.

Here’s what Alvarez has to say about the Alvarez Artist Classical Hybrid Cutaway & Bevel Spruce top Rosewood back Natural LR Baggs SPB

The AC70Hce is a versatile classical guitar constructed in the traditional sense with fan-style bracing for clarity and balance across all six strings. It’s a hybrid—a modern instrument bridging the gap between steel string and nylon string guitars.

The 70Hce is joined at the 14th fret, unlike a traditional classical guitar which is joined at the 12th, making this feel more familiar to steel-string players. It features a narrower nut width than standard classical guitars and has a radiused fingerguard, rather than flat.
All carefully considered details culminate in less of a departure from steel string familiarity for those players looking for a nylon string sound.

The contrast between Sitka and Rosewood creates a classic, sophisticated aesthetic with excellent tonal qualities. Where our Cedar top classical guitars offer a slightly warmer voicing suited to the lighter touch, Sitka delivers a robust, more precise cut that can respond to a heavier attack for volume where needed.

The AC70Hce features a slim bevel armrest for a more comfortable playing experience while adding a stylish custom vibe to this model.

The AC70Hce is fitted with the LR Baggs StagePro Bronze. The StagePro Bronze is a small-footprint side-mounted EQ incorporating the renowned LR Baggs Element under-saddle pickup. This is a low-profile unit with a large backlit tuner, volume, bass and treble controls and phase. The battery box is built into the end pin jack compartment for easy access with a simple push to open and change batteries.

More info about this Product

Acoustic Guitars

Acoustic guitars produce their sound naturally through the vibration of the strings and body, offering a direct and expressive playing experience. They come in a wide range of styles, including steel string and classical designs, each with its own feel and tonal character. Body shape, wood choice, and construction all influence warmth, projection, and balance, making acoustics suitable for everything from gentle fingerstyle to confident strumming. Whether used for songwriting, practice, or performance, acoustic guitars provide a simple, honest connection between the player and the music.

Classical Guitars

Classical guitars use nylon strings and a wider neck to produce a warm, rounded tone with excellent clarity and touch sensitivity. They are traditionally associated with classical and flamenco music, but are also widely used in folk, jazz, and contemporary styles. The lower string tension makes them comfortable to play and well suited to fingerstyle techniques and expressive dynamics. Classical guitars offer an intimate, natural sound that encourages precision, control, and a close connection between the player and the instrument.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Classical

Classical guitars are nylon-string acoustic guitars designed for traditional classical and flamenco playing, with a wide neck and flat fingerboard that support precise fingerstyle technique. Their construction prioritises balance, clarity, and articulation rather than volume or aggressive attack.

They produce a warm, rounded tone with soft highs and a smooth, expressive response, making them well suited to classical, Latin, folk, and fingerstyle music. Classical guitars are typically played without a pick and are valued for their dynamic control, nuance, and natural acoustic character.

Natural

Natural guitars showcase the beauty of the wood itself, with finishes that highlight the grain, colour, and character of each piece. Favoured by players who appreciate simplicity and authenticity, natural finishes let the instrument’s craftsmanship and tonewoods speak for themselves. Whether it’s the warm glow of mahogany or the bright shimmer of maple, a natural guitar has a timeless, organic look that never goes out of style. These instruments often feel more connected to their acoustic roots, offering both visual elegance and a sense of purity that appeals to musicians across all genres.
