      I use this for home playing and playing with friends. A person could definitely use this for playing gigs with. Great warm tone that will only get better. Easy to play even with the start of arthritis. I wish I would have bought one ten plus years ago.

    • Fantastic guitar. Ticks all boxes.

      Of my five guitars, this is my favorite. I use it to practice and take to lessons. Great for fingerpicking, rich tone, easy to hold and play, and beautiful to look at.

      I usually play a Martin dread. Wanted a mahogany top and sides guitar. Also wanted a smaller body guitar. This fit the bill. My son has an Alvarez AD90CE so I knew Alvarez was great quality. I was not disappointed took it out of the box, it played wonderful. Took it to my luthier, because I have every new instrument set up. He looked at it too to bottom, did some fret board measurements, handed it back to me and said it was dead on, nothing he needed to do. The Alvarez necks play so good! I will be buying a Ad60 12 string next. This is a beautiful guitar as well. The pictures dont even come close to showing how nice this thing looks. Fit and finish is flawless! Came with a nice Alvarez hard cade as well.

      Difficult to see if the finish is glossy. Prefer satin or no gloss.
