NGD: Alvarez Blues 51/TSB
Thanks to the great advice in my recent thread here, I went ahead and bought the Alvarez Blues 51/TSB for my daughter in recognition of her completing her studies.
I haven't seen the guitar live yet (she's away with her boyfriend), but she just sent me a couple of photos with the comments: "It's wonderful, soooo beautiful" "It sounds and plays so much better than the old guitar" "You can't compare it to the other guitar - a world of difference" I think that means it was a good buy Now some pics (sorry about the poor quality).... Here's how it looks in my daughter's hands |

Good choice, you can't go wrong with Alvarez. I've been wanting to try one of the models from that line for a while, but can't find them anywhere around me.

Sweet! I own a couple of Alvarez parlors - love 'em. This one looks like a winner as well. Congrats and thanks for the picture of one happy guitar player!
Best, Jayne |

HNGD for your daughter! The Blue51 is a cool little guitar. I got one a couple of weeks ago and can't put it down. Wasn't aware it was available as a 14-fret (mine's a 12-fret with a traditional bridge).

Looks great, have they changed the specs on the Blues51/TSB? They had a traditional rectangular bridge, not the Alvarez-style one shown here.

That's not the blues 51. But it sure looks good!

THe only guitar I can find on their website that looks like that is the blues 51, except for the bridge.

Swissguy, think you can get your daughter to photo the label on the inside of the guitar to get the model number?

I will ask her and get back to you. The guitar wa/is advertised as the blues 51, though
