Alvarez AC70

Though we have many choices for "step-up" student instruments in the steel string world, available instruments in the nylon/classical world are usually not as plentiful. Alvarez hits it out of the park with this very affordable and great playing sitka and rosewood AC70.

From Alvarez:

The AC70 Artist series classical guitar by Alvarez boasts an impressive blend of quality and price. With solid tonewoods such as a Sitka spruce top and a rosewood back and sides, the AC70 sings with professional tone that makes any advancing player or pro in need of a backup feel right at home. The Sitka spruce top is incredibly responsive to dynamic playing, offering a roaring, powerful sound when needed while helping keep softer notes present and full. Players love the AC70’s sound, but especially appreciate its comfortable feel and impressive price point.
