About This Listing

This is a vintage 1975 Alvarez Model #5059- in the style of a Martin D-28 Herringbone. Solid Spruce Top, Solid Rosewood Back and Sides, Herringbone Purfling, rosewood overlay head-stock, original tuning keys, rosewood fingerboard w/ Snowflake inlay markers.

The neck profile is a soft "V" shape like the old Martins, Herringbone Rosette, Rosewood Bridge, & X braced.

This guitar is light as a feather and has a very loud focused voice with a lot of punch.

The neck is in good shape, with only one slight mark/scratch on the top near the 5th fret. Frets are good w/ lots of life left. Action is good- not great, but could be lowered a slight bit. Here are some photos- let me know if this helps or if you have any more questions.  There is a lightweight chipboard case with the guitar.
