I've never owned an Alvarez before but an entertaining the idea of getting an Alvarez AP710. Anyone have any words of wisdom? Pro/cons?

Excuse the intrusion... I've found what looks like a great deal on a Alvarez AD90SCK Artist Series guitar.  Was wondering if any of you current Alvarez folks care to comment on that model.  For $375 appears to be a good deal, but I don't know much about them.  I'm looking for an alternative to using my HD-28 for stage work.  Any info will be appreciated.

I just bought the Alvarez AD90 koa back and sides, it's a great instrument, will post pics when I figure this out, later.

Yes, I did install the I-Beam.  Loving it!  Everywhere I play out, other players comment on the fine tone of the 5022/Baggs combo.

I still Play out some not as much as i use to.  the nine string is really at its best in singer songwriter / acoustic solo setting. I use the D I with all my guitars as it gives more control over the sound im looking for. 5 yaris thats cool, i have 2 alvarez the old 6 string I have is the guitar I started on over 30 years ago it still plays very good my 10 year old grandson is learning on it now. i have a couple of martins  and some others older kay, harmony, silvertone, an old harmony hollywood archtop that was my grandfathers that i hasve no idea how old it is.

I was watching a 9 string Yairi on ebay a year or so ago.  Looked like an interesting guitar.   Over the years I've acquired 5 assorted Yairi including 1 Sadao classical.  All very nice guitars.

I have the Baggs Para acoustic DI as well but haven't used it much as I'm not a professional musician but play every day at home and occasionally sit in with my girl who does play out a bit.

Alfred the nine string  is a very low action easy play, alittle more effort on barre chords .  like a 12 string, the neck is a little thicker. It has factory electronics and i have no idea what they are no preamp or controls I use an L R baggs Para Acoustic D I  with it.  the model # is 5058 early 80s as best i can tell. Ive only seen one other 9 string back in the 80s and a few on e bay
