{"product_id":"alvarez-masterworks-md60-herringbone-dreadnought-acoustic-guitar-new","title":"Alvarez Masterworks MD60 Herringbone Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar #2136 - New","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe MD60 Herringbone is a dreadnought styled after traditional bluegrass guitars. It's all solid wood, with an AAA Sitka spruce top over solid African mahogany back and sides. The herringbone purfling and matching rosette, tortoise pickguard and nickel open-gear tuners give it a classic bluegrass look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlvarez built this one for flatpickers and hard strummers. Their FS6 bracing is a forward-shifted, scalloped X that leaves a slightly larger area of the top free to vibrate around the bridge. Alvarez describes the sound as clear, powerful bass with sparkling trebles, and mahogany back and sides are known for a warm, focused tone. A bone nut and saddle and a slightly extended fingerboard round it out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want a solid-wood dreadnought with traditional bluegrass looks at a working player's price, this one is worth a look.
