Alvarez FD80 question
Anyone know anything about this A/E guitar from Alvarez? I don't think they make them any longer and I can only find the FD60's that seem to go for around 400 to 500 bucks new. I'm trying to buy a used A/E guitar on a budget here and found the FD80R locally for 135. Seller said it originally cost them around 700 bucks. If it's a higher model number than the fd60 then I can see that being true. Found VERY little info online about them though. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you own one or know about them or the value, please let me know. Thanks

I LOVE Alvarez. I think for the money, you really honestly can't do better. I can't get to eBay right now, but if you do an advanced search and check completed items only, it should give you a good idea of how much they're going for.

Thanks for the info. The problem with this model is that they don't make it any longer and it's next to impossible to find any. Well I did find out that it went for about 700 bucks retail when they were making them and I went ahead and picked this one up today for 135. Everything is in perfect working order and it has nothing wrong with it. Threw some new strings on it and it sounds great!
