Alvarez ALJ2E, Artist Series, Little Jumbo

Whether you’re ready to travel, hit the beach or laze around the house, small body acoustic guitars can be the perfect companion, which is one reason demand never seems to slow. With a few tweaks and careful design, small body guitars can sound fantastic and much louder and balanced than you might think.

The ALJ2 is a fantastic “Little Jumbo” with wonderful projection and balance. It’s made with high-grade solid Sitka top and is carefully designed to get the best out of its small body while staying clear and balanced. Many small-bodied guitars will have a “tubby” or “muddy” voicing. We’ve managed to give the voice clarity, balance and volume, making it a fun instrument to play and a great travel companion.

Carefully designed with a unique bracing pattern and arched back to give you an incredible tone and response from a small-bodied guitar, the ALJ2 is a serious little instrument. The ALJ2 is fitted with the SYS250 EQ with backlit tuner and comes with a 15mm DuoFoam Deluxe gig bag, ready for a journey.
