For a parlor built to exceed your expectations, choose the Masterworks MP60e from Sweetwater.Crafted from AAA spruce and mighty mahogany Many presume a parlor guitar has to sound muffled or small, but guitarists at Sweetwater recall astonishment upon hearing the MP60e in action! Mahogany back and sides give the MP60e a rich tonal body with strong midrange presence. The real catch here is a AAA Sitka spruce top, which lends the MP60e lots of volume and dynamic range that results in a visceral playing experience that’s easy to get lost in. The MP60e’s sound chamber features forward-shifted spruce bracing, a modern update to a classic style that helps the MP60e’s top vibrate more freely so it can produce more volume. With premium tonewoods and Masterworks craftsmanship in abundance, the MP60e proves that a parlor guitar can hang with its bigger-sized brethren with aplomb!Comfortable design from the neck down The Masterworks MP60e Parlor is packed with comfortable features that invite you to play any time, whether for a spare minute or hours on end! The parlor body style’s slim depth and size make it a comfortable player sitting down — even with bad posture on lazy days! Likewise, a rosewood fingerboard and a mahogany neck keep your fretting hand comfortable. Alvarez carefully developed this neck’s hybrid soft “V” to “C” profile to deliver ideal anchor space in any position. Toward the headstock, the “V” shape yields a better grip for 6-string open and barre chords; further up, the “C” shape gives hands more room for expression and thinking outside the box.Hardware details that make a difference This guitar spares no detail, even when it comes to the small things. A plethora of premium onboard hardware ensures this guitar is both beautiful and rugged, so you can rely on it for years to come. A true bone nut and saddle maximize the vibrational transfer from strings to body and ensure you’re getting the purest tone possible out of the MP60e’s body and top. The bridge and bridge pins are both made from rosewood, which also enhances vibrational transfer. The headstock features Masterworks tuning machines with an upgraded high-performance 20:1 gear ratio for precise results that hold tunings accurately and for longer.HiFi system bridge plate sensorsLR Baggs’ HiFi amplification The LR Baggs HiFi system is everything players want in an acoustic-electric pickup: balanced sound, non-invasive design, and an impressive resistance to feedback. The system is beyond reliable and offers 700+ hours of use on just a single 9V battery. Consisting of a HiFi preamp, two bridge plate sensors, a discrete endpin jack, and volume and tone controls, the HiFi’s magic lies in how the system preserves acoustic integrity. Just look at the bridge plate sensors, which use materials and placement that listen to acoustic movement and tonewoods without dampening natural resonance. These sensors are guests of the sound chamber, not intruders, and what you hear is your guitar’s inherent sound and nothing more.Alvarez MP60e Masterworks Acoustic-electric Guitar Features: An all-solid-tonewood parlor built to Alvarez Masterworks’ high-quality standards Parlor size works well for fingerstyle and players with small hands!
