Used Yairi Gakki YW1000 Vintage Solid Top Acoustic Guitar Wood

Famous for his collaboration with Alvarez guitars, Kazuo Yairi was one the worlds most respected luthiers (and also my personal favorite). This offering from 1976 has everything you can expect from a Yairi design, while also doing it in a much more stylish package than usual. With abalone inlays and trim, this guitar is sure to grab the attention of ears and eyes alike!

The guitar has seen a lot of love over the past 50 odd years, but it still plays and sounds like a dream. It has been inspected by our luthier to ensure that none of the wear and tear poses a problem. There is a fair amount of wear all over. On the top, the wear is mostly concentrated below the bridge, consisting of surface dings and scratches. The back has minor finish scratches including one long one in the top right. The first 5 frets have shallow divots on the B and E strings, but they do not affect playability.

All of our used gear comes with a 60-day warranty for local customers or a 48-hour inspection period for online orders.
