Alvarez RG260CESB Regent Series Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar Gloss Sunburst

The Alvarez RG260CESB Regent Series Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar is an innovative model that redefines what an affordable, quality instrument can be. With a cutaway Grand Auditorium body, slimmer mahogany neck and tonewood construction, the Grand Auditorium offers comfortable playability, robust tone and stage-ready electronics.

Cutaway Body Provides Easy Upper Fret Access

The Grand Auditorium's cutaway body shape provides comfortable access to higher frets for lead playing and intricate chording. Its tapered waist and rounded shoulders produce a balanced, focused tone with clear, ringing notes. The cutaway design also gives the instrument a stylish, modern appearance that will appeal to players of all skill levels.

Slim Neck Profile Suited for Beginners and Smaller Hands

Alvarez designed the Regent Series RG260CESB with beginner and intermediate players in mind. Its slimmer mahogany neck has a 1-11/16" nut width and low action for fast, comfortable playing. The neck's shallow profile helps new players properly position their hands and clearly fret chords and melodies. Seasoned players or those with smaller hands will also appreciate the Grand Auditorium's effortless playability.

Quality Tonewoods Produce Robust, Well-Balanced Tone

This Regent Series model's Sitka spruce top, mahogany back and sides, and scalloped bracing work together to produce a bold, balanced tone. The spruce top brings out bright, articulate highs while the mahogany body adds warmth and depth. Notes ring clearly and sustain well, allowing the instrument's full-bodied voice to shine through whether strumming chords or fingerpicking melodies.

Onboard Electronics for Acoustic or Plugged-In Performance

With the RG260CESB's SYS250 preamp and 3-band EQ, you have full control over your amplified tone. Easily adjust bass, midrange and treble levels to match the venue or mix well with other instruments. An onboard tuner also provides convenient tuning at the touch of a button. Whether performing for an intimate coffeehouse audience or on a large auditorium stage, the Grand Auditorium delivers the flexibility and quality of sound needed for any gig.
