K Yairi Guitars Serial Numbers
2021年5月28日Download here: http://gg.gg/ur7hd
When Kazuo Yairi began designing and hand-crafting his guitars in the 1960’s, he was deliberately competing with Martin, Gibson, Guild, and the traditional classical guitar makers of Spain for the higher end guitar market in the U.S. This CY-140 “Grand Concert Master” guitar is an example of the superb quality and sound which he was able to produce using the highest grade materials, the best Japanese craftsmen, and his own modifications of the best American and European designs. Today, the prices of the Alvarez-Yairi acoustic guitars range from $1200 to $5000 and beyond—especially the instruments made with highly-figured Coral, Jacaranda, or Brazilian Rosewood.

*Oct 17, 2007 K Yairi started building his guitars in Nagota, where Yamaha was making their Dynamics in the 50s until the mid 60s when they introduced their first laminates. Labels on newer K Yairis pictured in my books say they are made in Gifu, which my wife says may be around the foot of Fuji san. Heres a link to some some pics of some of my Yairis.
*New Listing K.YAIRI Acoustic Guitar KYF-CUSTOM NYLON #4674. Number of bids and bid amounts may be slightly out of date. See each listing.
Sadao was uncle of Kazuo Yairi who built guitars mostly under his own brand, K. Yairi have been marketed under a few names in the United States, including Yairi & Sons, Kohno, Shelly, and Wilson. They also build guitars for other labels like Alvarez and, in the 1980s-1990s, for Irish brand George Lowden.
This guitar has the serial number (60484) imprinted on the label, and the date (1985); this date is corroborated by the numbers stamped on the neck block (6009 466) indicating that this was the 466th guitar made in September of 1985—the 60th year of the reign of Japanese Emperor Showa (no, I’m not making this up). By this date only the highest-priced Yairis had solid wood for guitar backs and sides, and this CY-140, while a fine guitar, is not quite the top of the Yairi line. Getflv pro 9 0 5 1 keygen music theory. However, Kazuo Yairi was famous for the sophistication of his laminating processes, as well as for his careful collection of highly figured woods to use in his laminates.
A few notes on Brazilian Rosewood: obviously it comes primarily from Brazil and is also known as Palisander, Rio, and Jacaranda. This wood is now listed as an endangered species by the international CITES I agreement of 1992, so no new Brazilian Rosewood can be cut and no products using new wood can legally be sold. While many makers and luthiers—like Yairi--stockpiled supplies prior to the law’s passage, it is now very expensive to get really nice Brazilian Rosewood, so other highly-figured woods, including Coral and Flamed Rosewood, Coromandel, and other varieties have been utilized because of their beautiful resemblance to Brazilian Rosewood, although these varieties are usually of Indian or Pacific origin.
The CY-140’s solid top is select straight-grained Red Cedar, while the 2-piece back and the sides are made of select Brazilian Jacaranda Rosewood—although I’m pretty sure these are expertly laminated. The 12/19-fret fingerboard is ebony with large nickel silver frets, ending with a bone nut and bone saddle. The wrap-around bridge is rosewood, and the neck and headstock are mahogany. The tuners are gold-plated with pearloid buttons, the rosette is wood inlay, and rosewood and maple binding completes the body. This is one gorgeous guitar, well worth its MSRP of $2900!
Even more impressive is its playability and its huge sound. Heuer bundeswehr serial numbers lookup. The frets have very little wear on them, and the neck is quite comfortable for my kind of small hands, measuring 2 1/16” (52 mm) at the nut, with a 664 mm scale.
The years of seasoning of the quality solid top and Jacaranda back and sides make this about as resonant a classical guitar as I have played, with great big bass and clear ringing trebles. Perhaps some of this resonance is due to the transverse classical bracing system, similar to that of the iconic Ramirez 1a. The usual Spanish neck block was modified by Yairi with an internal neck extension for greater strength and stability.
While this guitar no doubt has been played, there are virtually no visible dings, scratches, or bruises anywhere on it. I managed to find a few pinhead dings in the binding, but that’s about it. The only possible flaw I see is the kinda strange anomaly on the back of the headstock; I can’t tell if it’s a dark swirl in the wood, or some kind of repair, but obviously it has no effect on the sound or playability of the guitar. On a 1-10 scale, I’d say this guitar is at least a 9, and it’s really beautiful.
The presumably original hard shell case is structurally solid as a rock; the admittedly tarnished hardware all works, and the plush interior is in good shape. More importantly, it fits this guitar like the proverbial glove, looks fine, and certainly provides outstanding protection for this valuable instrument.

Payment by Paypal is preferred; cashier’s checks are acceptable, but checks must clear before the guitar will be shipped.SERIALIZATION
I have tried to be perfectly clear and accurate in describing this instrument, so its return will not be accepted unless it can be shown that it was egregiously misrepresented in this listing.
