This is really a special and rare made in Japan Alvarez guitar model 5063 with a solid top & ( this guitar combines vintage Gibson and vintage made in Japan Alvarez tone)
stunning flamed maple back. I have owned and bought and sold many made in Japan Alvarez guitars but the tone and look of this one is special and a lot of guitar for the money. Really going t mis this guitar when someone buys it as it makes me happy every time I play it as sounds unreal. ( real vintage tone) It is bringing out the hedges in my playing and writing, ( has some martin tone in there as well) THIS IS SO MUCH REAL VINTAGE TONE FOR THE MONEY . I saw one a while back on the net that sold for a lot more then what I well let this go for and I am throwing in a FREE gig bag a new one to help is shipping. Believe me this is a lot of guitar for the money and has a lot of depth and sweet mountain tone with some vintager gibson tone in the mix with the great made in japan alvarez Yairi type tone. If I had a free standing store I would get like $760 for this at least.This is a lot of vintage made in Japan guitar and tone for the money and already dropped the price a lot so just a little more room. The cherryburst finish is just beautiful and I think this is from from the 70s like around 77 but could be early 80s but sometimes a guitar is made before they add a serial number to it.Many of the great sounding guitars made in Japan Alvarez guitars Back is darker then in the pics but you can see the flame and this guitar sounds amazing and hard to put it down.
from the 70s or early 89s are all laminate and they still sound unreal like a great but the Japanese are experts at the art of making great instruments and just like many top level violins and other musical instruments made in Europe a lot of it is made with laminate wood but if done right can sound amazing so rare to find on with solid to like this and stunning flamed maple back.( very rare) It has some dings on the top and one is a bit bigger and a small ding on the back of the neck but this guitar has a vintage Yairi type sound with some vintage Gibson early 60s tone thrown into the mix. This guitar looks and sounds amazing and sounds as good or better then any of my Yairi or 70s Alvarez in my collection and not an easy guitar to let go of. I have never heard one like this that has such nice volume and voice that combines the vintage alvarez 70s tone with some vintage gibson tone with a tad of martin thrown in to the mix.This guitar sounds unreal and plays nice too.
No case but will double box it. At 63 I have been buying and selling and collecting guitars for around 40 years but this one really stands out as it has more depth and more of an orchestral vibe ( and bloom) then other ones I have heard. My wife used to own a 63 Gibson J 45 and she said it reminded her of it but with even more toner and bloom. This is one hell of a box
and always hard to describe tone but also hear some kind of slope shoulder tone in it but again with more range of tone and this is a very special guitar. This is one of the best ad most unique sounding Alvarez or Yairi guitars I have ever heard. They should have put the Yairi label on this one as it is a lot of guitar with a beautiful tone. My shipping to the east coast has been running a little more then this so you might need to chip in a little more.
A bit of unevenness behind bridge which is common with older guitars ( even expensive ones) but this guitar blows my mind as I thought I have already every Yairi and Alvarez tone out there but this guitar
re-defines what a great vintage guitar tone can be. I might decide to keep this and never heard this much range of tone with this much mountain woody Gibson and Alvarez Yairi type sweetness and yes I am excited about this guitar and this guitar will inspire new ideas which is what a great instrument does.
No returns or exchanges on this as work to hard to find great guitars and this one is very
special.
If you live in like Hawaii, Alaska or PR or anywhere where the shipping is a lot more you will need to chip in a little extra. If you want a very special guitar this is it and video coming soon.
