The Parlor Shootout: Why You Need a Parlor Guitar - Alvarez TV

This week on the Acoustic Show we have four of our Parlor guitars - Artist AP70e, Masterworks MP70e, Laureate LP70e and our Yairi Masterworks PYM70 - all have the same wood configuration but sound surprisingly different in tone. We talk about the origins of the body shape, why we love it and what made its resurgence in recent times, and finally we play them side by side for comparison Join us on the show as we discuss all things Parlor.
