The original tuners have been swapped out with Grovers (see pics), the pick guard needs attention / re-glued and the bridge was screwed down (see pics) at some point so it needs attention / repair as well.

There is a hole on the side where I assume an output jack was once mounted and there is a threaded hole next to the guitar strap button. I assume the... more

This is a beautiful vintage Alvarez case that is thinner than the average acoustic guitar case. It??s only 4 inches wide when shut. I??m assuming that it is intended for use with an electric guitar or a thin line acoustic guitar. It is rare as there are no other ones that I can find anywhere. All original and all fasteners work as they should. Check pics for measurements to ensure fitment
