THIS LISTING HAS BEEN UPGRADED FROM CHIP BOARD CASE TO A FREE BRAND NEW HARD SHELL CASE!!

An acoustic guitar from Tim's Acoustics means you get more than just someone's old guitar, you get a guitar that we spend a lot of time with.
Making sure you get a guitar that has been brought back, to as close as possible, to its original playing condition, most of the time even better. This one has had the frets leveled, re-crowned and polished. To say the least.

SIMPLY THE BEST YEARS FOR YAIRI WAS THE EARLY TO LATE 70'S!

YAIRI'S OF THIS EARLY NATURE WILL NEVER BE MADE AGAIN, WE LOST K. YAIRI A FEW YEARS BACK AND AS WITH ANY LOSS OF A GREAT CRAFTSMAN, HIS CRAFT SOARS IN DESIRABILITY AND VALUE!-DON'T MISS THIS ONE!!

THE EARLY YEARS IS WHEN YAIRI WAS YOUNGER HIS ATTENTION TO DETAIL WAS INCREDIBLE!

THE 70'S DREAD'S HAD THE MARTIN STYLE HEADSTOCK WITH A HAND CARVED VOLUTE AND THE NECKS WERE ALL SHAPED BY HAND AS WELL.

YAIRI AGED AND AIR DRIED ALL HIS OWN EXOTIC WOODS AT HIS SHOP'S STORAGE AREA HIGH IN THE JAPAN HILLS. PERFECT CLIMATE FOR THE PROCESS HE DEVELOPED.

SIMPLY WATCH THE YAIRI FACTORY TOURS ON YOUTUBE (PART 1 & 2, LINK ON THIS PAGE BELOW) AND BE AMAZED AS I WAS, ON THE COMPLETE HANDS ON, SMALL OPERATION OF ARTIST'S DOING THEIR CRAFT!

-SPRUCE TOP, MAHOGANY BACK AND SIDES, EBONY FRET BOARD AND EBONY BRIDGE.

-NEW COMPENSATED HAND CARVED BONE SADDLE!

-COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL, VINTAGE USA BULLS-EYE GROVERS, THAT ARE STUNNING AND ARE WORTH $150 BY THEMSELVES.

-FRETS HAVE ALL BEEN LEVELED, RE-CROWNED AND POLISHED TO PERFECTION!!! THEY ARE AT 70%+ LIFE.

-THERE ARE SOME TYPICAL DINGS ON THIS GUITAR, NOTHING MAJOR ,THERE ARE THE TYPICAL PLAYING MARKS/SCRATCHES ON THE TOP AS WELL, THE BACK AND SIDES OF THE GUITAR IS IN REAL GOOD SHAPE FOR THERE AGE. THE WORST COSMETIC ISSUE ARE A FEW DINGS ON THE SIDE OF THE NECK WERE IT LOOKS LIKE IT SLID DOWN WHILE LEANING ON A COFFEE TABLE AND BUMPED IT ON THE CORNER, TOP SIDE BY 12TH FRET AREA(last picture) OVER ALL SHE IS A NICE VINTAGE YAIRI-THE PICTURS TELL THE STORY! SHE SOUNDS AMAZING! GREAT NECK ANGLE AND LOW ACTION. THE TRUSS ROD WORKS SMOOTH AND HAS ALMOST ZERO PRESSURE ON IT TO KEEP THE NECK STRAIGHT! SWEET!!!

HERE AT TIM'S ACOUSTICS WE ALWAYS FIND THE BEST YAIRI'S AND THE MAKE THEM EVEN BETTER!
