    I like the Alveraz just for the simple clarity of sound

    That's a heck of a guitar for such a small price. Congrats!

    Bought the same guitar a few years back. Upgraded the nut, saddle and put in bone bridge pins. Also changed the ugly pick guard for a normal shaped one. Sounds even better now!

      What'd you upgrade the nut/saddle to? They already came with real bone from the factory.

    • @crypto-gean

      Oh snap. Wasted upgrade since it already comes with bone nut/saddle. As for bone pins, ebony is already super bright so any difference to bone pins would be negligible

      so underneath the pickguard was finished with lacquer as well?

    I've got the same guitar except mine did not come with a pickup ( mine is the MD60BG). I don't care for pickups in an acoustic guitar anyways. I like using a mic and not plug the guitar into an amp.
    I love the sound of mine and I too reviewed it. I love the way they designed the bridge. It really drives the strings down into the saddle for a better tone, in my opinion.

    I've tried a Martin D-28 at my music store priced at 4,600 $ cad, and i swear to god that it didn't sound better than the Alvarez md60ebg that i've tried right after! I paid 1000$ cad tax in for the Alvarez! Saved 3600$! Ps: i ask the salesman on the floor with me to close his eyes, and tried to tell wich one i was playing..Alavarez..or Martin? 5 out 5 he couldn't tell wich one i was playing!

      To be fair you were comparing mahogany to rosewood so hearing the difference to a trained ear "should" have been easy (most salesman don't know much from personal experience, I worked Guitar Center in a previous life). You should have compared the MD60 to the D18 and made it apples to apples

    Just picked up a md60 ebg today 2nd hand 2020 model in mint condition for under£400 sounds amazing😊 feel like i should have been wearing a stripey jumper and mask given how much guitar im getting for that price!

    Amazing guitar. I bought an epi instead of this, and I am kicking myself. Pretty sure I am going to sell it and go get the MD60BG like I had originally planned. I would love to hear another video of it as it ages for you.

    Really falling in love with these models... and at the price..you can own both the 60 and the 70 models..actually crushing hard on MDR70ESB..the 12 fret sunburst Rosewood model.

    Hi - great vid and the guitar sounds good. I'm thinking of getting one as a second gigging guitar and just wondering if, after a year, you've had any problems with the bridge lifting as this seems to be a problem with this model although I've had others where it has not happened. Thanks.

    • @GraemeCampbellMusic
      @GraemeCampbellMusic  ปีที่แล้ว

      No, my bridge has been fine, I even had 13s on it for a while before switching back.

    Thank you for making this video! Which of the two guitars have more projection back/front (vibration). I played my b-in-law’s Taylor 524 , it haunts me to this day the deep bass and the back vibrates like crazy.

    • @GraemeCampbellMusic
      @GraemeCampbellMusic  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The Alvarez “feels” louder but that might just be my ears as the Taylor has really mellowed over the years and doesn’t have the same top end, but is a little richer in the room.
