Alvarez Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Tobacco Sunburst

World-Class Japanese Craftsmanship: The Alvarez Yairi WY1TS

The Alvarez Yairi WY1TS proudly carries on the Yairi legacy of world-class, handcrafted Japanese guitars. This supremely versatile OM-shaped instrument offers a captivating blend of sophisticated design and uncompromising performance.

At the heart of the WY1TS lies a captivating tonewood pairing. The East Indian rosewood back and sides provide a solid foundation of low-end power and high-end shimmer, perfectly complemented by the warm, touch-sensitive response of the AA Western red cedar top.

Beneath the WY1TS's elegant exterior lies a true workhorse of an instrument. The slim OM body style, coupled with a deep cutaway and Direct Coupled bridge, endows this guitar with a remarkable tonal flexibility and reliability that elevates it above the competition. Whether you play fingerstyle, flatpick, or anything in between, the mahogany/rosewood neck's soft "V" to "C" carve delivers effortless chording and a comfortable, flat feel as you move up the neck.

When it comes time to amplify your sound, the WY1TS is equipped with an LR Baggs Element pickup and a StagePro preamp, ensuring your acoustic tone is faithfully translated to the stage or studio.

As with all of Alvarez's Yairi instruments, the WY1TS 6-string Acoustic-Electric Guitar with Cedar Top, Rosewood Fingerboard, and Tobacco Sunburst finish is a testament to the enduring legacy of world-class Japanese craftsmanship. Whether you're a seasoned performer or an aspiring musician, this guitar is poised to inspire your creativity and elevate your musical expression.
