Description

There is a certain elegance to a 12-fret 000 when it is done right, and the Alvarez Laureate Series LT70e Sitka/Rosewood Herringbone Sunset OOO Guitar captures that feeling immediately. Built with an AAA solid North American Sitka spruce top and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, this model leans into classic proportions while adding a refined, modern touch. The Sunset gloss top paired with natural gloss rosewood, ivoroid binding, and herringbone appointments gives it a timeless look that feels both warm and upscale without being flashy.

In the hands, this guitar offers a rich, balanced response that suits a wide range of playing styles. The 12-fret design shifts the bridge placement for a fuller, more relaxed low end, while the Sitka top keeps the response clear and articulate. Rosewood adds depth and sustain, giving chords a wide, supportive foundation and allowing single notes to bloom naturally. Alvarez’s FS6 bracing keeps everything responsive and controlled, making the guitar feel lively whether it is being played gently or pushed a bit harder.

The playing experience is confident and comfortable. A 1 3/4 inch nut width, African mahogany neck, and ebony fingerboard create a familiar feel that works well for fingerstyle and light strumming alike. Premium open-gear tuners, bone nut and saddle, and ebony bridge and pins support consistent tuning and clarity. Outfitted with LR Baggs HiFi electronics, the amplified sound remains natural and true to the acoustic voice, making it stage-ready without complication. Housed in an Alvarez AFC30 case, the LT70e is a refined 000-size guitar for players who want classic feel, modern reliability, and a beautifully balanced instrument that rewards nuance and touch.
