Together, these tonewoods offer lively presence and warm, bright tones delightfully combined with an easy-playing one-piece mahogany neck capped with an ebony fingerboard. What makes the tonewoods in this Alvarez stand out? Before they even make it into their final classical acoustic shape, they undergo a seasoning process that can take years to decades until they finally offer an Alvarez guitar outstanding tonal properties and playability.Serious attention to detail While the stellar tonewoods are show-stoppers themselves, the Alvarez CYM75 boasts a range of other appointments and construction attributes that combine to make its tonewoods truly shine. For instance, a Direct Coupled Bridge developed by Mr. Yairi in the 1980s serves to add response and projection by transferring more vibrations from the bridge into the top of the guitar. Also, the CYM75’s mahogany neck, with its Spanish heel joint, found its shape through spoke shaving done by hand to ensure maximum comfort while fretting in any position. Lastly, stunning inlays, real bone nut and saddle, and Gotoh gold tuners polish this acoustic off with exceptional appointments that’ll make it your next family heirloom.The Alvarez-Yairi system Comprised of 24 luthiers, four of them holding master luthier status, the Yairi luthier workshop in Kani, Japan handcrafts guitars with artisanal dedication to their craft. These bench-made guitars find their distinguished voices through the hands of skilled luthiers – some of them boasting as much as 55 years experience in the industry. That means when you hold an Alvarez-Yairi guitar in your hands, you’re holding a piece of art that received immense skill and precise concentration from start to finish. Yairi earmarks like their fan bracing system, thin finishes, and Direct Coupled Bridge set these guitars apart from others in the industry — after all, it’s no surprise with 85 years of experience building concert classical guitars.Why put your trust in an Alvarez?
