K.Yairi NY-U2 2020

"K.Yairi" is a leading Japanese acoustic guitar brand with a workshop in Kani City, Gifu Prefecture.The quality of each piece, which is hand-finished by skilled craftsmen, has earned the trust of artists both domestically and internationally.

The compact "New Yorker style" acoustic guitar "NY-U2" is now in stock.It is made in 2020.

This model is slightly larger than a mini guitar and combines ease of handling and rich volume with a solid spruce top and obangkol sides and back.It has a mahogany neck with a Japanese-style shape that is easy to hold, and a rosewood fingerboard.

In addition, the design is based on the concept of taking advantage of the natural texture of wood, and by intentionally leaving the unique characteristics of the knots and grain, each piece has a unique expression.?In addition, the 12th fret joint neck structure, 635mm scale for improved playability, and a compact yet rich sound.

TOP: Solid Spruce
BACK/SIDE : Ovangkol Laminate
NECK: Mahogany
FINGER BOARD : Rosewood
BRIDGE: Rosewood
Nut width (mm): 43
Scale (chord length) (mm): 635
Total length (mm): 986
Body width (mm): 360

Currently, acceptance of new production is suspended and this model is difficult to obtain.The texture of the guitar is typical of a vintage guitar, and the paintwork gives it an antique feel, making it look so good that you can't believe it was made in 2020. I thought this was a rare challenge for Yairi.
As for the sound, the use of obankor produces a rounded bass that is deeper than mahogany and a little more subdued than rosewood.It's small, but the overall balance is good, and it's a book you'll want to keep in a corner of your room so you can reach it anytime.
