Alvarez AF66CE Artist Folk/OM Acoustic-Electric – Shadowburst

The Alvarez AF66CE Artist Series Folk/OM is a cutaway acoustic-electric guitar built around a solid African mahogany top with African mahogany back and sides. Its Shadowburst gloss top highlights the mahogany grain while the smaller OM body provides a comfortable playing profile with focused mids, clarity and balanced projection. The exact Australian SKU AF66CESPBSHB is listed for this Shadowburst model.

Designed for both acoustic and amplified performance, the AF66CE features FS6 bracing and an LR Baggs StagePro Bronze system with an Element under-saddle pickup. The onboard StagePro Bronze provides volume, bass and treble controls, phase adjustment and a backlit tuner.

Solid African Mahogany Top

The AF66CE uses a solid African mahogany soundboard paired with African mahogany back and sides. Alvarez describes its mahogany-top Artist models as offering a focused response with strong mids and clear note definition.

Comfortable Folk/OM Cutaway Body

Its Folk/OM body measures approximately 390mm wide and uses a cutaway for easier access to the upper frets. The neck meets the body at the 14th fret, with 21 frets and a 24 13/16-inch scale.

LR Baggs StagePro Bronze Electronics

The current AF66CE Shadowburst specification uses an LR Baggs StagePro Bronze preamp paired with an Element under-saddle pickup. The compact side-mounted system includes an illuminated tuner along with volume, bass, treble and phase controls.

FS6 Bracing and Bone Components

Alvarez equips the AF66CE with its FS6 bracing system, a bi-level Indian laurel bridge and Indian laurel fingerboard. A bone nut and saddle complete the string-contact points, while chrome closed-gear tuners handle tuning.

Please Note: The top is solid African mahogany. Alvarez specifies the back and sides simply as African mahogany.
