Re: Alvarez Model 5222 (c.1987)

: : : I'd like to know the value of my 5222, (Mahogany) Serial# 28196 (c. 1987), but I'm also wondering if Alvarez made a 12-string in the same series. (A matched set would be SWEET, wouldn't it?!?)

Larry Burnet I'm wondering if the one you bought is my old one. I sold one probably around that date in Nashville. Shoot me a pic of it to alanrobertsd@gmail.com if you would. I'd love to know where that thing is. It was my first guitar when I was 15 bought at a pawn shop for $100.
