Another Cool Rare and Unique Variation on this particulr Guitar is this one is So Early it Also Pre-dates the Signed Labels!! This label doesn't Even hav a Spot for a Signatature!! Yairi Passed away a few years back and was a Legend of a Guitar builder in our time, Guitars like these represent some of his earliest stuff and now are becoming a part of Japanese Guitar Making History at a point when they really started to make their mark on the Guitar World Market place especially the USA. The Back and sides are the Famous Yairi Made Laminate that he made because he Alvarez Spec'd them like this to lessen the number cracks in overseas Shipping! Notice they are stamped in, not printed on the label and probably when the guitar was Finished for final set-up. Louis Music for his Contract, This is how they kept track too of the units. Anyway this one is Serial number 299, Which makes this one of the 1st 300 Guitars Yairi Handed over to St. Now the Serial Numbers, it is pretty obvious to anyone these are consecutive, Just look throughout the Years and watch them Grow! They also almost always for some stupid reason Never start with 0, it is usually something like 100 or so they don't look like beginners. Well The 1st digits on this neck Block is 1 (Pictured) but the 2nd 2 are 46 Clearly not the Emperor we are all used too and a few digits shy of other Neck block numbers we are used too I believe either.

This is a Nice and Early Example of a Steel String Alvarez Yairi, this is actually the Earliest I have EVER Seen from Yairi! Which means that Yairi Himself for sure had his hands on this Build!!!!! He started out in the 60's with his Family as a Highly Trained Classical Guitar Builder and that is what Alvarez Had him do 1st, You can Find Some Alvarez Yairi classical guitars dated as early as 1970 or 1971 and you can find even earlier Kazou Yairi Classical Guitars with other Branding like CBS Masterworks, But you won't find any steel String Guitars until 1972 BESIDES THIS ONE! because I believe in 1971 Alvarez had Kazou Yairi here in the States being trained on how to make American Style Steel String Guitars for the 1st time so his little shop could start making the high end Japanese Alvarez Guitars and Boy Did He! This one had a Refret about 20 years ago, and still has a ton of life in them, I Leveled, Crowned and polished then to perfection!! And it shows in how well this one Plays!!.PRO-SET-UP I have her playing super sweet with action well below my normal set-up because it simply came together awesome and now plays its best since made!! I made sure of it!.

Brand New ABS case with Key to Protect your investment.But these are in Gold another Rarity for one of these I have only ever seen Nickel or Chrome on this model!
