"unbelievable sound and bargin for twice the price"

Feature:
beautiful looking piece.case is very nice. strings sound great

Quality:
i have never owned an alvarez before.i never even heard of them. i did do some online research before purchase.wow what quality and fantastic sound for such a low price.i read reviews of pepole who said these things about your product but took it with a grain of salt. boy was i surprised.i love it and will defintley buy another alvarez again.beats my fender of 23 years hands down.

Value:
cant be beat ,no way for twice the price

Desirability:
looks great plays even better.such smooth action

Sound:
i can only say that i have played much more exspensive guitars that dont sound this good.i returned a takamine (jasmine) to purchase this rd8 on the advise of the person who answered the phone when i called in.thak you ,thankyou,for this recomindation.he asked what guitar i was used to playing and what type of tone i wanted.he nailed it.the guitar sounds wonderful and the action is unbeliveable.oh buy the way the case is free also. cant miss with this one guys.

Ease of Use:
you guys really stand behind what yousay.i wasnt happy with my inital purchase and was looking somewhere else for answers and decided you guys had been helpful all along why not give you another shot!so glad i did. you matched and beat your competitors price as advertised.thanks guys

Support:
wonderful pepole,proud as they should be of there product.shout it from the hills alvarez looks and sounds great.quality craftsmanship

Overall:
i will never get rid of this marvelous piece of sound equipment. i will definitly recomend and repurchase an alvarez guitar with out question. this is a entry level guitar that sounds and looks this good.it only gets better with time.the sound is so mellow and hasnt evened aged yet. time is definitly my friend.cant wait to see how much better it gets.
