I typically play electric guitar but wanted an acoustic because...well, there's just too much good music out there that I want to learn that is acoustic. Figured I had to have one and didn't want to break the bank.
So I went to my local Music Go Round and played everything they had in stock - Mitchell's, Epiphone, Alvarez, and a few I can't remember. The Alvarez RD8 had a very nice feel to the neck and booming sound that really impressed me. I was shocked that the price was only $239 with a hard shell case included. The guitar also comes with Elixer strings which means you don't have to immediately replace the strings - very good quality.
As I was checking out a guy stopped me and said he had the same guitar and everyone he plays it for loves it, including a fellow band member that plays a Martin!
After having the guitar for a couple of days I can tell you that I'm very satisfied - this guitar will go a long way before I think about having to upgrade...Read more
