Built from old-growth Honduran mahogany purchased 50 years ago by Kazuo Yairi himself, the Alvarez Yairi Honduran Series Folk/OM guitars display some of the finest tones and playability ever bound within a wooden frame. Constructed completely from this fine tonewood that has seasoned to near-perfection these past 50 years and capped with a striking ebony fingerboard, the Alvarez FYM66HD shines as a golden example of Yairi craftsmanship.
