New here, Alvarez Yairi DY77   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #9688 of 10481 |
Hi,

I have been on the lookout for a nice DY77, and just won this on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?
ViewItem&rd=1&item=220339326161&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=012

It hasn't arrived yet as the auction only ended a couple of hours ago
but I am pretty excited about it. I mainly play (and love) Martins but
wanted a laminate back/sides for taking out. I think the price was
pretty good, the seller probably would have gotten more and higher bids
had he mentioned Yairi and not just Alvarez.

Any opinions on this guitar? What sort of rosewood do you think it is -
EIR or Brazilian?

Thank you for any replies!

~Lynn
