I purchased this guitar in a pawn shop in 1971. Never learned to play very well, only about 10 hours.I'm 67 years old and would consider sellin it. Can't find any serial numbers on it.CHERRY. bEST OFFER OVER 3500.00
I have an Alvarez classical guitar. The model number is 5006. The serial number is 570. Somebody scratched off the country of origin on the tag. Supposedly it was made in Japan. Could you give me info on this?
What would you like to know about it? The guitar was made at St. Louis Music (slm) in the 70's
The same place where Crate amplifiers were made. John Karpowicz was one of the creators of the
crate, however, I don't know who started making the Alvarez at SLM. I think the name was added
on.

My Dad bought a Alvarez 5039, I believe that he got it Christmas 1975. The date on the inside says 2/12/1975, I assume that is the date it was manufactured or completed. The plate says it is 753 of 800. My Day loved that guitar. It is still in mint condition. The case is worn and not in good shape.
Good Evening, you were wondering about what your Alvarez Artist, model 5042 (60th. Anniversary) guitar was worth. Well I happen to have the same guitar, I purchased this guitar brand new in 1982, I think I payed somewhere around $350.00 for it and I have wondered like you have of the value of this fine guitar. The numbers on the back of the brass plate on the back of my guitar reads 000072, which means I have the 72nd. 60th. anniversary of the model 5042. I was just looking on ebay and came across the same guitar we own, the seller (JaxPawn) has a "Buy it Now" price of $1299.99. He is stating that this is an extremely rare guitar. I am hoping this is the case, I knew that this guitar may have some value but wasn't sure if it would be this much. By the way, the numbers on the plate of the guitar he is selling are 000326 so if yours is a lower number like mine is that may be more good news. Now I don't know if this will be the going rate for these guitars, like I stated above this is the only Alvarez #5042 that I have seen going for that price. Lets keep our fingers crossed, lol. I hope this helps you in some way. Keep on pickin', have a great evening.
I have one as well and it sounds and plays as good as it did when I first it. The serial number is all zeros and 19. If you ever find out the value I would be happy if you shared it. I bought mine in late 1981 for $300 or a little more.

Hey guys, I just bought an Alvarez Model 5073 in an estate sale. I think it was made in 81 or 82, is a thin body acoustic/electric with a tone and volume knob. Dark Brown solid color, quite a pretty guitar, and plays well. Can anyone tell me about this particular model, and what it might be worth? I already have someone looking to trade me a new Dean Acoustic model EQA TBK, and don't want to do anything foolish.
Do you, by any chance still have that Alvarez? If so I am interrested to buy or to trade for newer acoustic? I collect old japanese acoustic guitars and shape it is in is of lesser importance, as it will be just in display. If you di not have it any more maybe you have co-ordinates of present owner?
I have a beautiful Alvarez 5051, 60th anniversary edition of SLM 1922-1982, SERIAL NUMBER 000003. It is in like-new condition, mahogany. Beautiful tone and plays and sounds as good as any of my guitars and I have a 1962 Gibson J-50, a 2005 Martin D-42, and several more guitars.
Looking for an Alverez, classical silver anniversary edition. Old friend had one in 1990-91. Loved playing that one. Does anybody know the series and or the model #. It would help me greatly in finding one for sale.

I am looking to sell an Alvarez Custom 1981 DY60 Yairi Anniversary 6string Acoustic-electric & wanting to know a price. Please email me if you have info or are interested in purchase of this guitar that is in EXCELLENT condition. Thank you, Kathy O.
What do you know about this guitar. Also, I cleaned it up and applied tuner cleaner to the controls, but it still sounds like the ocean. Any suggestions?
This guitar is in very good condition with the exception of bowing on the front due to being strung for 40 years, also has stress cracks from this..Anyone know what it is worth,
Thanks for any response
I have had this for over 20 years. Can't find anything out about it. Its value. How many were made. I have #00052 of how ever many were made. Would like some help. I have looked and looked and cannot find anything.
Thanks!!

I have an Alverez 5024 dove, and it has the adjustable bridge. Well the screw adjusters are not in the bridge but I have them but have no idea how they should go in!!!!!! Please help!!!!!!!!
I just picked up a used Alvarez fusion series FD-60 Amber acoustic and was wondering when it was made. It's the Korean made (not Chinese) with a serial number of 128302.
I have an Alvarez Cut-away model RD8C Serial number F209070277 with an Alvarez case. I would like to now what year the guitar was made and possibly the present value. It is in great condition.
The value really depends on the model and condition, Juan and his Brother Lorenzo had very good skills with some mentoring by Barbero although good instruments they really did not get the player to move there guitars forward. If you contact me with some info I can be a little more specific.

can anyone help me, i've got an old alvarez folk guitar that was giving to me, all I know is this it was bought in 1969, it is a laminent top,its tag inside is missing, its stamped made in japan, and the only numbers are inside the sound hole, and they are 617. Any info on the guitar would be appreciated
no Alvarez catalog seems to identify my 5020N serial#. Any ideas out there that will help me find the value of this beautiful sounding and easy playing accoustic? When other guitarists are around they always seem to want to play my Alvie when given a choice. I don't blame them, it's sweet as it gets.....Jimmy B. P.S It was purchased used in Bowling Green Oh, by the Music Director of BG University, Depue, for his son Alex Depue, aka the "FIDDLER". He was my next door neighbor and was and currently is one of the greatist violinists in the country today. I believe he needed money badly. I may be a little off, but it seems I paid him about $225-$250 for it about 8-9 years ago.
