1990 alvarez k yairi acoustic guitars dy74c

I purchased the guitar new from Roy & Candy’s Music in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Yairi signed DY90 dated 53.6.16 or June 16th, 1978 the 53 year of Emperor Showa. Frets have plenty of life left, and the original Grovers stay in tune very well. This instrument is in incredible condition for any age and functions properly.

With 46 years of natural seasoning, loving care and light use, this DY-85 is a lifetime heirloom guitar. The original k yairi guitars were masterfully crafted, and time has only improved the wood and tone of this lovely instrument. Solid spruce top, mahogany neck and rosewood back and sides this was Yairi’s top or the line, flagship model, with pearl inlay and binding everywhere. This original vintage Alvarez Kasuo Yairi DY85 acoustic dreadnought in lovely playing condition. Comes with original case in near perfect condition (maybe a few scuffs) but hey, not on the guitar.

This one of a kind guitar that is literally like new, no dents, scratches, wear marks, cracks, nothing! I promise you there is not a nicer one out there. This is a true masterpiece in acoustic guitar building, and is hand-signed by Kazuo Yairi. For sale is this 1976 Alvarez Yairi DY-85 acoustic guitar. Maybe that has something to do with age, I don't know.Turning 46 on December 12th, 2022. As far as I can tell it's spruce with rosewood, ebony fingerboard (but I'm a novice on woods).Īny thoughts? I'm really leaning toward it, since the other guitar I'd been looking at getting, a Larrivee 03, just didn't seem nearly as full. It had electronics (I didn't get around to plugging in) and seems to be in good condition. I don't know much about acoustics, though, and have no idea if this is a good, fair or bad price on something like this. To me, it sounded every bit or better than many of the new Martins/Taylors et.al. This weekend I saw a used 1984 Yairi DY74C going for just under $700.

It was always servicable as something to play back when I focused more on electric, but now that I've gotten into this acoustic thing, I'd like to upgrade. My acoustic is the same one I've had since 1988, a Yamaha FG-400a. It turned out to be a good thing, though, since I seem to have grown more on acoustic in 3 years than I did after 6 or 7 years of electric.mostly fingerstyle. After some substantial time off, I started picking stuff up about 3 years ago but concentrated mostly on acoustic, since I'm in condo-living where plugging in the electric causes more problems that it's worth sometimes. Hey, I've posted a few times on this forum but haven't really introduced myself.I started playing about 20 years ago, mostly electric garage band stuff through high school and college.
