1990 DY61 bought 10 years ago. Just a lovely instrument. My first attempt to buy a quality acoustic and I feel very lucky that a friend told me about Yairi guitars. I then read about the shop in a Japanese mountain village where generations of Yairi family craftsmen made their instruments by hand. Rich, beautiful, tone woods, inlays that are tasteful but opulent - the guitar is a work of art that literally sings - I have never been disappointed with my choice - it's always a joy to pick up and sounds incredible - I spent around $600 and can't imagine getting a better guitar for 3 times that. If I had only one guitar it would be my Yairi.
