Like all Yairi’s, the DYM95 is handcrafted in a traditional Japanese mountain village workshop under the personal guidance of master luthier Kazuo Yairi. The exotic solid side and back woods and fine-grained solid spruce tops are naturally air dried and sculpted with individually hand-shaped bracing and dovetail neck joints. Yairi’s brilliant design innovations include an extended neck tenon for a wider range of rod adjustment and no neck/body irregularities. A unique coupled bridge design removes the forward pull from the bridge itself for greater stability and lighter bracing, leading to freer tone. This enchanting Alvarez Yairi DYM95 gets visual luster and sonic brightness from its sultry solid Indian rosewood back and sides. Other enhancements include a bound ebony fretboard, abalone rosette, multiple body binding, bound ebony headstock veneer, and gold die-cast tuners with amber buttons.
