I would avoid buying anything mail order/ ebay- never buy a guitar you haven't had in your hands unless you know the model well. Most fingerpickers prefer smaller bodied guitars. Try to get one with a solid top but don't worry too much about the back and sides. Recognise that probably no guitar will give you everything (bit like buying a house). Wait until you can get to a big city where they have lots of choice but if you can't wait and you the Alvarez gives you most of what you want, go for it. Good luck
