Alvarez RF20SM Great Guitar...CHEAP...$140 ***SOLD****

[Blue in VT]

Howdy all,

I've decided that I'm not digging the 1 11/16ths nut width on my Alvarez RF20SM ...its just not working for me...
this is a total bummer beacuse everything else about this guitar is FANTASTIC....for the money its really hard to beat.

I bought this with the intention that it would be my "beater"  though its really TOO NICE for that...In fact it was brand new when I got it just a few months ago!!!!  So now it can be yours...it would also be a wonderful choice for some one starting out and looking for a great sounding first guitar that won't break the bank

As you can see from the pictures it is a Folk (read OM or OOO) size guitar...25.5in scale length...1 11/16ths inch width at the nut.  Laminate Mahogany Back and sides with a Solid Mahogany top.  It plays very nicely and the action is quite low and perfect for fingerstyle.  For heavy strumming it may need to be raised slightly.  I currently have it strung up with Elixir Nano custom light Pbs and they still have a lot of life left in them.

NOTE this is a blem model....that is why there is a stamp on the tag that says "almost perfect"  (That is also why its so CHEAP!!!)  However....the only Blemish I can find is on the back...along the binding of the lower bout there is a slightly rough spot where things didn't quite line up properly...you can see the close up picture for more detail....this is a VERY minor blemish and does not affect the tone of the guitar at all...also its on the back...so no one but you can see it...

The only other thing not Stock about this guitar is the Pickguard...I got rid of the HIDEOUS Alvarez pickguard it came with and replaced it with the tortis celluloid one you see in the pictures....it still has the protective plastic on it.

It comes with a slightly worn gig bag (see pics for details)...not the best...but better than nothing...

It can all be yours for $140.00 SHIPPED to lower 48!!!!










Cheers,

That's a great price. To bad it didn't work out for you Blue. Interesting saddle on that, they must do that to increase the break angle on the strings

Thanks bhika...it is an awesome guitar for the money...just not for me...

The saddle and bridge are both intersting ...but pretty kool looking IMO

That was a nice looking piece.  Too bad the 1 11/16 didn't work out for you.
