Yokoyama Guitars / AN-WC

"For those who want to use a guitar with meticulous attention to detail!"

Founded by Masashi Yokoyama, who built a long career at "Morris," "Yokoyama Guitars" is a brand whose appeal lies in his continued pursuit of tonewoods even after many years of experience as a researcher.

This time we're introducing the "AN-WC."

It's an auditorium-sized, non-cutaway model, which might be a slightly unusual specification for Yokoyama.

This guitar features white spruce, which has acoustic properties similar to Adirondack spruce, and Camatillo wood for the sides and back—a familiar specification.

While Camatillo wood is a familiar material for Mr. Yokoyama, its high processing difficulty means it's rarely used by other manufacturers.

In terms of sound quality, it's somewhere between Brazilian rosewood and ebony, producing a clear, slightly hard bass response.

Rather than being suited for powerful chord playing, this guitar truly shines in solo guitar performances, as exemplified by guitarists like Isato Nakagawa and Shun Komatsubara.

The number of Camatillo guitars is decreasing year by year, and even Yokoyama Guitars is finding it increasingly difficult to offer them.

It's in beautiful condition with no noticeable major scratches. Comes with the original, stylish hard case.
