The Alvarez LF70e Laureate Folk is a hand-crafted acoustic-electric built with close attention to detail and tone. Every component, from the AAA-grade Sitka spruce top to the solid East Indian rosewood back and sides, is hand-selected for maximum resonance and responsiveness. Its FS6 forward-shifted bracing, carved from quartersawn Sitka spruce, enhances projection and tonal balance, while the Herringbone Sunset gloss finish gives it a refined, vintage aesthetic.

Built using Alvarez's bench-made Laureate Series approach, the LF70e features flawless finishing, abalone inlays, and African ebony for the fingerboard, bridge and headstock plate. The LR Baggs HiFi pickup system captures the guitar's natural voice with outstanding fidelity, making it ideal for players who want heritage craftsmanship, modern electronics and a timeless look in one folk-style acoustic-electric.
