The Alvarez RD12 Regent Series Dreadnought Acoustic is a great sounding guitar that comes with a hard-shell wood case. It has a spruce top and mahogany back and sides, classic tone woods that generate a warm and well-balanced tone. Alvarez have made the neck profile on Regent Series a little finer so they"re easier to play and every model is constructed using a dovetail neck joint that optimizes the transfer of energy between the neck and body. All Regent Series instruments are fitted with the Alvarez bi-level bridge to carry more vibration to the top, which improves tone and resonance, and the PPS saddle and nut help to improve response and sustain. This instrument has been finished using an electrostatic painting process for a more even finish that uses less paint in its application. This allows the guitar to sing a little more and it also looks fantastic. Premium die cast tuners deliver tuning stability. All in all the RD12 from Alvarez is a perfectly constructed, great sounding guitar that will be a joy to play straight out of the box. Comes with the Alvarez Limited Lifetime Warranty.
