Alvarez Launches New Masterworks Elite Series

January 1st 2020

ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI – – Alvarez Guitars are proud to introduce the brand new Masterworks Elite Series. The all-solid wood Masterworks Elite Series are custom style guitars made with premium tonewoods and finishes and are dressed beautifully; all using techniques that Alvarez has applied years of R&D to deliver at a great value.

“Following the success of Artist Elite we wanted to take the next step,” says Chris Meikle, Head of Development at Alvarez and Senior Vice President of St. Louis Music. “With Masterworks Elite we have created stunning custom style guitars made from all-solid tonewood that players dream about.  They sound and look truly radiant and we are delivering them at unprecedented value.”

Masterworks Elite showcases premium-grade solid black walnut and AA grade Sitka Spruce tops under Alvarez’ crystal clear, attenuated gloss finish. Back and sides are made from Solid Black Walnut as well.  All models are dressed beautifully in abalone purfling, with Macassar Ebony binding & armrests, and shadowburst finishes.  All models are cutaway acoustic-electric, fitted with the fantastic LR Baggs Stage Pro Element pickup system.

Dealers are encouraged to visit the St. Louis Music booth at 2020 Winter NAMM to experience the Masterworks Elite Series first hand.  For more information or to become a dealer call your St. Louis Music representative at 314-727-4512 or email [email protected].
