Daphne: Thanks for the input. I appreciate it. I'm just a bit concerned with the guitar's 25 1/2 inch scale. I have small-ish hands and love to fingerpick...

My 2 cents: After 40 years playing guitar and playing many, many instruments, both having owned them and trynig out many more of my friend's axes or the ones...
I have to agree with you about personal preference. It's rare for two people to agree on guitars. That's why more than 1 company makes them. Larry yowza987...
another two pennies worth,I've been playing a number of years myself and also foolishly sold a 1966 d-28 but I own two custom luthier made guitars one a mini...

The DY-45 I bought on ebay last week arrived a couple of hours ago. 1980 model with a K. Yairi signiture in what looks like sharpie. As the seller explained it...
I own 4 Yairi guitars, the oldest of which is a 1975 DY-85. The others are a 1981 DY-55, a 1982 DY-77 and a 1986 DY-96. All of these guitars have the K. Yairi...
I bought a new DY45 tobacco burst in 1985, and have played it hard since then. It's amazing. A real tank of a dreadnought. I've had the frets dressed twice...

Nobody here is going to claim that owning a nice guitar is life's goal. Still, the old blues guys you're referring to played old Stellas because that's what...
I strung this DYM95V with DR13-56 Sunbeams(round core. This is the finest sounding guitar I have heard in a long time. I've taken it to several jams and each...
I think his point was they could make an old Stella sing because they were great players - not that they chose Stellas etc. because they were the best blues...
Thanks. Let me make myself clear. I have never doubted the quality of Yairi guitars. I bought the dy-55 I own brand new in 1981. I was sold on their quality...
