"Full, spunky beefy sound!"

Feature:
I use the tuning option in the electronics mostly but when I plug in, I enjoy the crisp sound they produce.

Quality:
Everything was perfect on this guitar, even used... quality control, quality product.

Value:
Yes, craftmanship is nice and sound is awesome

Desirability:
It is not busy with design, tho it is atractive. It is aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

Sound:
I originally picked up this barely uesed guitar to sell to a friend. When I brought it home, I could not put it down. I currently own a PS90C and found the MF80C to be a beefy sound; much fuller, spunky sound than the PS90C. In all honesty, the MF80C is the nicest sounding guitar I have purchased. I also own a SP0016 Martin. The MF90C beats even its sound. It has a wonderful ring in harmonics and sounds awesome acoustically... I do not think the sound can be improved... it is simply perfect.

Ease of Use:
sweet action, sweet sound.

Support:
So far, I have not needed any services from Alvarez.

Overall:
I ended up giving the instrument to a good friend, so I will be looking for another like it simply because of the fabulous sound. I have other guitars but I really enjoyed the sound of the MF80C

"best guitar I've ever owned"

Feature:
top notch electronics

Quality:
very well made...if taken proper care of it will be a nice airelume (I think that is spelled right...lol)

Value:
mine listed for $1199 new and i bought it on sale for $799.....worth every penny

Desirability:
not the flashy guitar you see alot of but very nice to look at

Sound:
I bought it new in 2006 in a guitar store. I played it and went to another guitar more than once but kept comming back to the mf80c. The best guitar i haver owned. Good crisp to a melow sound when plugged in but is at its best when just being played w/o electric. The only equal sound i have found is the taylor 814 model but it is egual not better.......very good action and easy to play

Ease of Use:
very fast.....good action....easy to play.....can play for hours and not tire

Support:
no need to

Overall:
this guitar will never leave my ownership!!!!!
