Alvarez Delta00 Sunburst Artist Blues Series Acoustic Guitar - Tobacco Sunburst

6-string Acoustic Guitar with Spruce Top, Mahogany Back and Sides, Mahogany Neck, and Laurel Fingerboard - Tobacco Sunburst

Rustic Blues Charm Meets Modern Refinement

The Alvarez Delta00/TSB acoustic guitar captures the heart of the Great Depression-era delta blues, with a few modern refinements thrown in for good measure! The touch-sensitive Sitka spruce top is paired with African mahogany back and sides for warm, dry tone that’s ideal for plucking fingerstyle blues numbers. A soft “V” to “C” carve on the mahogany/Indian laurel neck is similarly well equipped for fingerpickers. But fear not, strummers! Alvarez’s back-shifted scalloped bracing provides an updated take on the blues guitar formula, with a slightly more open tone and more powerful projection that belies this 00’s small size — it might not be a dreadnought canon, but it's perfect for light to moderate strumming.

Soft “V” to “C” neck profile

While most modern manufacturers have switched over to skinny “C”-shaped necks over the years, the substantial heft of a classic “V” profile is perennial favorite of Sweetwater’s strummers! To merge the best of both old and new, Alvarez designed the compound soft “V” to “C” neck profile that starts off chunky but thins out as you slide up the neck. For guitarists who cover a wide variety of sonic styles, this shape delivers incredible flexibility, allowing for both slick upper-register bends and licks, while still comfortably filling out your grip at the base of the guitar’s neck.

Time-tested tonewood pairing

The Alvarez Delta00/TSB’s tonewoods carry on the century-old legacy of spruce-on-mahogany small-body blues guitars. A sweet-sounding solid Sitka spruce top produces a resonant, touch-sensitive response that excels with fingerpicking, sporting enough power to handle up to moderate strumming. African Mahogany back and sides give this 6-string the dry, crisp sound that — when combined with the short sustain and the punchy power of a 00-sized guitar — epitomizes the tone of 20th-century acoustic blues.
