1986 Alvarez Model 5039 Rosewood

Built in Japan during a period known for exceptional attention to detail, the 1986 Alvarez Guitars Model 5039 delivers the kind of balanced, mature tone that only decades of natural aging can produce. This is a player’s instrument—responsive, warm, and articulate, with a voice that has opened up beautifully over time.

It shows a few dings and scrapes consistent with honest use, but remains structurally solid with no cracks or repairs. It’s the kind of wear that tells a story without compromising performance.

Includes a hardshell case for safe storage and transport.
