I ran across an Alverez 5086 in a garage sale, and I really like it. It's a shallow body acoustic electric, and has a toggle switch that channels the upper 3 strings separately from the lower 3. The only thing I can find out is that it is most likely from a wildwood series.
I have a Yairi, and I really like this Alvarez for it's comfort and size. Any spec or production info would be greatly appreciated.
The catalogue i'm using calls this the 5086 Wildwood BI-PHONIC. tHE
Wildwood Series first came out in 1983.It came with a cedar cutaway
top,back and sides ovangkol,nato mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard
and bridge, gold die cast tuners with amber buttons, and the Alvarez
Bi-Phonic pick-up system.It looks like a pretty sharp guitar.Hope
this info helps you.
