... Lets see- it a 'Jumbo' body style, and has a typically great Jumbo tone. The "E" means it has the built in pickup with the end plate jack. Decent sounding...
Hi ! I leave in FRANCE (Europe). I have a YAIRI DY59/12 and an ALVAREZ AD70SC. I want to know what are the best strings for these two guitars. Thanks for your...
Hi, all. Other web sources have proven convoluted or in Japanese, so here I am. I just came into a 1971 S. Yairi 300 classical as a freebie (!). It has some...
Sure your excited about having a S. Yairi 1971 classical for free that sounds and feels good. Nice to hear your going to keep it. Congrats on the soon to be...
Steve, Well now I am seeing double....there are double the number of double necks on ebay...one says DY86, but it is indeed a DY87 also... item No. 7355328495 ...
I'm new to this forum. I've been a Martin Owner for years and recently purchased a DYm-95V. Has anyone tried one of these out. I'm trying to warm up to it...
Kent Yairi's can vary in quality. I have owned one or two that I wound up selling because they just did not have a good sound outside of the shop. A lot of...
Hi Kent, although the Yairis may vary in quality (which IMHO is normal because they are handmade and every guitar has its individual character), I would like...
John, I would say about $ 800 or better. I love my CY127CE, but it dosen't have the "natural response" pick up that the newer models have. They are great...
As it's my first post I'd better tell you a little about myself and my favourite guitar. Back in 1968, in my student days, I started to learn to play the...

John, Buy one guitar and call me in the morning....:-) Had to pull out mine and re-string it after talking about the new model on ebay. New strings have been...
... Good point. This guitar has six mini-saddles, so it must have six pickups. Interesting, and I wonder if anyone's done anything with that, e.g. wire all six...

... Dick Great to read your posting. I've got the same model - serial number 49, year 1967. Bought it about 8 years ago on a car boot sale for £37 . It has...
Godin has been doing that for some time. I had a Godin ACS SLIM with that kind of individual saddle pickup system - great sound. I just could not get used to...
... The Yairi's pickups are made by RMC? Or just that both Yairi and RMC use individual saddles? For anyone who has a CY127CE - do you get much of what's...
John, I didn't say Yairi uses them - I have looked at a lot of CY127 ads and don't remember seeing the individual saddles before on one. But it may be the way...
John, To quote NFL Officals "on further review" I went back to eBay ads and Alvarez-Yairi site and the two models that use that individual saddle arrangement...
Just A History for anyone who is interested... I bought this guitar in 1968 at a seven story music store in the Ginza in Tokyo. I didn't have the money so I...

Welcome Dale, what a great story! Loved the story of your purchase, sounds like a great guitar, look forward to the history and pics of it perhaps? Peace, Jim ...
Hello jonescrap, I was really impressed when I read your story. In 1968, I was just 3 years old and never knew I would play Yairi guitar... The shop where you...
I recently purchased a DY-88 and was wondering if any of you out there in Yairi Land know what kind of strings work best on this guitar. This guitar is really...
