Alvarez K. Yairi YB1 70th Anniversary 2005

Here is a beautiful Alvarez Yairi YB1 jumbo baritone acoustic guitar, meticulously handcrafted in 2005 at the esteemed K. Yairi factory in Kani, Japan. Check out the back and sides! Whoa mamma! It's Coral Rosewood. If you're not familiar:

Coral Rosewood, Southeast Asia: Used for side and back parts as an alternative for almost unavailable Jacaranda. Elastic and clear-cut sounds are characteristic. As for its unique and marvelous irregular veins, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish from authentic Jacaranda.

Nice.

Distinctive Yairi headstock with gold die-cast tuners. Slight nick on the back of the neck and a few minor marks consistent with careful use. This guitar comes with the original hard case.
