Thought I'd post a video I uploaded with sound track of me playing Canonball Rag on the Yairi. I didn't play it terribly well, lots of buzzing finger work, my fault, not the guitar. But I muddled through it more or less and thought it was a good accompaniment for this video. Recorded the guitar with a Rode SVM mic into a Zoom H1 recorder. I think it gives a decent idea of guitar's sound.

Do all of the FYM66HD guitars have a one-piece top?

Tell me about the neck. I’m Yairi curious but haven’t ever seen one in the wild. IIRC, it’s listed at something less than 1.75 at the nut. Does it play as slim (maybe like a 90s Taylor) or do you notice the difference much at all?
BIG EDIT: old eyes didn’t catch that it’s an old thread. Question’s open to the floor for thoughts on their standard neck shape and feel. Last edited by mas30066; 03-21-2024 at 12:37 PM. |

I find the necks to be perfectly shaped. A mild V shape at the nut transitioning to a round shape higher up. Very nice feel.
I just acquired a Masterworks Alvarez with the same neck profile, and I LOVE it. The Alvararez/Yairi models represent an incredible value. Roger |
