The Grateful Dead are one of the most prolific rock bands of all time. Alvarez has had great friendships with members of the band and to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the band they linked up to produce the limited edition Alvarez grateful dead acoustic guitar.
This is a great guitar for collectors since it is a limited edition. If you’re brand new to guitars, you may want to start off with a cheaper and beginner friendly model before you start collecting, like a three quarter size acoustic guitar. No two Grateful Dead guitars are exactly the same since the artwork is different on each. If you would like a guitar that gives you both performance and pride knowing that you have the only one of its kind in the world then you should get the Alvarez grateful dead acoustic guitar. Every guitar comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Performance wise, the guitar doesn’t disappoint either seeing that it is made of a solid top design with the same high quality components used in other Alvarez guitars. This is one of the best acoustic guitars that has very solid sound projection and response. With the OM model the guitar has very good balance and tone, whether you play with a pick or learn how to strum without a pick.
The rose artwork used on the guitars was used in the Grateful Dead posters for the Avalon Ballroom performance in 1966, making this guitar so unique, just like the guitar we feature in our Gretsch Jim Dandy review.
