Available now at Irvine Art and Music, the Alvarez Yairi FYM60HD Honduran Series Folk/OM Acoustic Guitar brings a legacy of craftsmanship from Kani, Japan, to your hands. Handcrafted by master luthiers with over 80 years of experience, this guitar combines top-quality old-growth Honduran mahogany and AAAA-grade Adirondack spruce for exceptional tone, clarity, and response.

Product Highlights:

• Premium Tonewoods: The FYM60HD’s body is crafted from Honduran mahogany, seasoned for over 50 years to produce a warm, resonant tonal profile with full-bodied bass and brilliant highs. The AAAA-grade Adirondack spruce top provides a crisp articulation and headroom, ideal for both gentle fingerpicking and powerful strumming.
• Innovative Bracing and Design: Featuring Alvarez’s FST6 bracing system, this guitar offers an optimized balance, separation, and projection, allowing every note to shine. The Direct Coupled Bridge, a unique innovation by Kazuo Yairi, enhances response by efficiently transferring vibrations from the strings to the soundboard.
• Exceptional Playability: With a comfortably shaped mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard, and a hand-shaved spoke design, the Alvarez FYM60HD ensures an unparalleled playing experience. Its Folk/OM body shape makes it perfect for versatile playing styles, from intricate fingerpicking to dynamic chords.
• Fine Details: This acoustic guitar is built with artisanal precision, featuring a bone nut and saddle, thin finish to highlight the wood’s natural beauty, and Gotoh tuners for reliable tuning stability. These premium appointments make it a cherished addition to any musician’s collection.
