1981 Yairi Alvarez DY-76,

Serial Number: 41000

I seldom get  this excited over a Guitar's Condition, but I am first of all a big Fan of the Kazuo Yairi Alvarez's, this DY-76 is in amazing condition, no marks of any real consequence. It is in phenomenal condition. It has no Belly Bow at all. Comes with the Original Case and has been setup professionally.

FEATURES:
Dreadnought Body
Solid Canadian Spruce top 
Rosewood Back & Sides
Mahogany neck.
Herringbone Binding
Tortoise pick guard 
Ebony Bridge
25.5” scale
Includes Original Hard Shell Case

   When Kazuo Yairi began designing and hand-crafting guitars in the 1960’s, he was not trying to create a “mid-range” alternative to the best American guitars; he was consciously competing with Martin, Gibson, Guild, and the “boutiques” for the higher end guitar market in the U.S. This DY-76 “Herringbone Twelve” model is an example of the quality and sound which he was able to produce using the highest quality materials, the best Japanese craftsmen, and his own modifications of the most effective American designs. Today, the prices of the Alvarez-Yairi acoustic guitars range from $1200 to $4000 and beyond, and as A-Y players will tell you, they are well worth the money.
