AlvarezAD60 Herringbone Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar - Natural

The Alvarez AD60 Herringbone dreadnought acoustic guitar pairs a solid A Sitka spruce top with African mahogany laminate back and sides in a full-size acoustic design. Its dreadnought body provides the broad, open response players associate with the format, while the solid spruce soundboard responds clearly to changes in picking and strumming touch. A thin gloss top, semi-gloss back and sides, Indian laurel appointments and bone string-contact points round out the build with traditional acoustic details. Finished with Herringbone styling, the AD60 gives players a responsive dreadnought platform for accompaniment, flatpicking and assertive rhythm work. Dreadnought Body Provides Full-Size Acoustic Response The AD60 Herringbone is built around a dreadnought body shape, giving it the larger-format acoustic foundation many players prefer for broad strumming and confident accompaniment. Its full-size soundbox supports the open character associated with the dreadnought format while remaining responsive to changes in picking attack. Whether driving through open chords, supporting a vocal or working through flatpicked passages, the body shape provides a familiar and versatile acoustic playing platform. Solid Sitka Spruce Top Drives Response A solid A Sitka spruce top provides the responsive soundboard at the center of the guitar. Its thin gloss finish gives the top a lustrous appearance while supporting the soundbox’s ability to vibrate and react to changes in playing touch. From lighter single-note passages to more forceful strumming, the solid spruce top helps the AD60 Herringbone deliver a clear, immediate acoustic response rooted in traditional dreadnought construction. African Mahogany Laminate Completes Body Construction African mahogany laminate back and sides form the body behind the solid spruce top, creating a practical tonewood combination for this Artist Series dreadnought. The semi-gloss finish on the back and sides complements the thin gloss top for a cohesive presentation. Together, the materials and finish choices give the AD60 Herringbone a traditional acoustic foundation shaped around a full-size body and responsive soundbox. Thin Gloss and Semi-Gloss Finish Details The AD60 Herringbone uses a thin gloss finish on the top and a semi-gloss finish on the back and sides. These finish choices give the guitar a balanced visual presentation while supporting the responsive design of its soundbox. Combined with the Herringbone styling, they create an instrument that looks rooted in familiar acoustic-guitar tradition without distracting from the essential construction and playing features. Indian Laurel Touchpoints and Bone Hardware An African mahogany neck, 25.5" scale length and 1-3/4" nut width provide familiar acoustic playing proportions. The Indian laurel fingerboard and bi-level Indian laurel bridge offer traditional touchpoints, while MOP and acrylic inlays add visual detail. Bone is used for both the nut and saddle, and D’Addario XTAPB1253 strings come installed for a complete acoustic setup. Dreadnought Character With Herringbone Style and Details With its solid Sitka spruce top, African mahogany laminate body, dreadnought format and traditional appointments, the AD60 Herringbone is built for players who want clear acoustic response in a full-size instrument. Its Herringbone styling and practical playing specifications complete a design that suits regular practice, accompaniment and flatpicked playing. The Alvarez AD60 Herringbone dreadnought acoustic guitar brings traditional construction and responsive playing feel together in one versatile acoustic.
