I bought this A 400 alvarez a few weeks ago and it has become my main instrument. I bought it to take canoeing or camping . If it got damaged , so what. To my utter surprise this thing plays and sounds awesome!
It sounds as good as my Pava pro but is louder . I can finally play in my little bluegrass Americana band and be heard. I have 6 mandolins now all bought in a effort to get that sound and volume I needed and this alvarez hit the mark??
I have heard on this forum many , many times , play it before you buy. There is nothing special about this A400 , it just came out right. It looks like it was never played and is flawless in finish and fit.
Go figure!
