New for 2024! Laureate is the most premium-sounding and aesthetically considered guitar line Alvarez has ever made. We modeled Laureate on a traditional guitar line, with traditional shapes such as Dreadnought, Parlor and OM, and other additions to come. Laureate allows us to explore the history and tradition of the acoustic guitar, which is something that we’re deeply passionate about. This traditional method to the build of this line meets our more modern Alvarez approach, keeping projection and tonal design rich and dynamic. These combined philosophies to the build make Laureate distinctive and unique, influenced by guitars from the early 20th century while staying innovative, responsive and exciting. The Laureate series features the finest grade woods, hand-finished FS6 bracing, and traditional-style bridges.
The LD-70e is a Dreadnought guitar with solid AAAA sitka spruce top, solid East Indian Rosewood back & sides, gloss "Daybreak" finish (a super light burst), and LR Baggs HiFi pickup installed. Alvarez Flexicase is included. Free shipping within the continental US!
