Alvarez Yairi Masterworks OM FST6 Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Sunburst

In the small town of Kani, nestled in the hills north of Nagoya, Japan, lies the renowned K. Yairi guitar factory. They have been crafting guitars here for over 80 years.

Alvarez and Yairi have enjoyed an uninterrupted 55-year partnership in producing exquisite guitars, made by hand, from naturally seasoned woods with an unwavering commitment to quality and design. Every neck is spoke shaved by hand, braces are carved, and tops are tuned to perfection. The attention to detail and quality of the build are impeccable.

Californian Redwood, purchased by Mr. Yairi many decades ago, has been paired with East Indian Rosewood to create rare and inspirational instruments with new tonal horizons.
