Alvarez Yairi Virtuoso WY1 Acoustic-Electric Cutaway KOA
Handcrafted in an old-fashioned workshop in a Japanese mountain village under the personal guidance of master luthier Kazuo Yairi, Alvarez Yairi guitars are made with extremely choice tonewoods. The exotic side and back woods and fine-grained tops are naturally air dried and sculpted with individually hand-shaped bracing and dovetail neck joints. Yairi's brilliant design innovations include an extended neck tenon for a wider range of rod adjustment and no neck/body irregularities. A unique coupled bridge design removes the forward pull from the bridge itself for greater stability and lighter bracing leading to freer tone. Includes hardshell case.This enchanting Alvarez Yairi WY1 is available with your choice of three tonewood combinations. Rosewood back and sides combine with a solid cedar top to deliver a full-bodied sound that's as warm and inviting as the comfy cutaway folk-style body. Or you can choose figured maple back and sides with a solid spruce top for a brighter edge. The third option is a WY1 constructed of premium Hawaiian koa for a completely unique look and warm, powerful tone.This Virtuoso model comes with the expressive System 600T MKII electronics for premium acoustic-electric amplification. Other enhancements include a bound ebony fretboard, abalone rosette, multiple body binding, bound ebony headstock veneer, and gold die-cast tuners with amber buttons.
