Its AA North American solid Sitka spruce top and Macassar ebony body deliver plenty of volume and low-end while keeping the trebles clear and articulate. Between the premium tonewoods and the ebony bevel armrest, this is a striking guitar with a high-end vibe and a big voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe FS6 forward-shifted bracing pattern opens up a larger soundboard area to heighten vibration, working alongside the high-quality Sitka top and premium components throughout to create an engaging playing experience. The cutaway makes the upper frets easy to reach, and the ebony bevel armrest — slightly thicker on the Dreadnought than on Alvarez's Grand Auditoriums — takes the edge off long playing sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlugged in, the AED90ce runs the LR Baggs StagePro Bronze: a small-footprint, side-mounted EQ built around the renowned LR Baggs Element under-saddle pickup. The low-profile unit gives you a large backlit tuner, volume, bass and treble controls and a phase switch, with the battery box built into the end pin jack compartment so a simple push gets you to the battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AED90ce is part of the Artist Elite series, Alvarez's line of solid-top guitars with a custom-style vibe. Exotic woods, bevel armrests and wood bindings give the series its rich look, finished in a flawless, thinly applied gloss that lets the top respond. Alvarez grades its solid tops independently of its suppliers, cures its woods over months or years, then adds an extra thermo-kiln drying stage called ATR (Advanced Tonal Response) — a form of oxygen-controlled torrefaction that removes additional moisture, saps and sugars for a more stable, drier, quicker and more open-sounding instrument from day one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 style=\"font-size:1.5em;\"\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Shape: Dreadnought\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Top Wood: Solid AA Sitka Spruce\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Back and Sides Wood: Macassar Ebony\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Top Color: Natural\/Gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Back \u0026amp; Sides Color: Natural\/Gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Armrest: Ebony Bevel\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Headstock Facia: East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Bridge Pins: PPS Synthetic Bone\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Neck: African Mahogany\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Pickup\/EQ: LR Baggs StagePro Bronze\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Bracing: FS6\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Bridge: Bi-Level Indian Rosewood\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Inlays: MOP \u0026amp; Acrylic\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Fingerboard: East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Nut and Saddle: Bone\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Tuners: Chrome Closed Gears\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Strings: D'Addario XTAPB1253\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Neck Meets Body: 14th Fret\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Number of Frets: 21\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Overall Length: 1042 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Body Width: 395 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Body Depth at Heel: 100 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Body Depth at Base: 122 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Scale Length: 648 mm (25 1\/2 in)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Nut Width: 44.45 mm (1 3\/4 in)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e• Case or gig bag sold separately\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eModel# AED90CE_Armrest\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alvarez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60520454815825,"sku":"109282","price":889.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/8936\/5585\/files\/img_0f9761e638ad.png?v=1789078002","url":"https:\/\/www.musiciansbuy.com\/products\/alvarez-aed90ce-armrest-artist-elite-dreadnought-acoustic-electric-cutaway-guitar","provider":"MusiciansBuy.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
