By Jim F. Wymore
Alvarez FD60AMB Thin Cutaway Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar, Top Figured, Back-and-Side Quilted, Maple This is a great guitar, with a small neck adjustment out of the box, have been playing on stage 15 to 20 hours a week. Has great tone, stays in tune, and sounds even better through an amp. My wife has claimed it because of it's easy to play and the thin body is comfortable.

By Greg
I'm not one to buy guitars online, I really prefer seeing and hearing an instrument in detail before purchasing. That being said, I couldn't pass up an incredible limited time sale price on this guitar at Amazon. I checked over user ratings at about 5 different websites and was amazed at how positive all the comments were.After owning it for 3 months I couldn't be happier. Great for finger picking, solid with a flat pick, easy to play, even balance of tones and very well built. I bought a $1,300 Taylor from Guitar Center about 6 months ago and returned it because just didn't seem to have much feeling to it. An awesome guitar no doubt, but it just seemed to be missing something, not to mention that it was not good at all for finger picking.This Alvarez is obviously not the same caliber as the Taylor I returned, but I like it much more. I own several guitars from classical to electric, but I would have to say that this Alvarez is the best all around instrument in terms of value and performance. I never thought I would buy a guitar online, but what a surprise.

By John P. Hazebrouck
I am a professional musician and an avid guitar collector. I recently added the Alvarez FD60AMB to my collection. It is a well crafted guitar and is visually stunning. Out of the box, the intonation and set up is right on. The electronics and pick-up with on board tuner is exceptional. Although, I am somewhat disappointed with the over all sound. The low end is deep and rich, the mid range is too sharp, and the high end is harsh and thin. The light strings supplied just don't cut through the mix. Replacing them with D'Addario EXP16 coated Phosphor Bronze (12-53) made a considerable difference. Using a DOD Acoustic 1 preamp pedal through a Marshall AS50D acoustic amp solved the problem. For the money, $280, this guitar is a steal, but a little tweaking is necessary!
