  • Please note that the Chinese-made Alvarez guitars introduced in this video are not related to the Japanese-made Alvarez Yairi guitars. All Yairi guitars are made in Japan by the will of CEO Kazuo Yairi. I’m Japanese, but I once contacted Yairi Guitars to confirm. I occasionally receive inquiries, and the craftsman said that they tell them that they are completely unrelated guitar manufacturers because the names are similar. Therefore, although the guitar in this video has a similar name, Yairi has a history and is definitely a Japanese-made guitar, so please do not be confused. In Japan, it’s called K. Yairi, and is a long-established manufacturer with the same history as Yamaha. The history of CEO Kazuo Yairi, who has already passed away, is correct, but personally I find this video unpleasant and confusing as it introduces the two manufacturers as Yairi guitars. I repeat, this manufacturer's guitars, names, and marks are very similar and are made in China. Alvarez Yairi Guitar is not related to the guitar maker in this video, and how to tell them apart is that yairi is written as "Made in Japan." thanks from????????????

  • I mean… having Pete and Chris Buck jamming in between guitars is kinda like cheating.

  • Maybe I've had astronomically bad luck, but I've never played an Alvarez that impressed me, they've all sounded stiff and over built. The shot showing the internals of a guitar are revealing massive braces, that explains some of it for me.

  • This is exactly what happens when you put a R&D person and a marketing person together

  • I've had my Alvarez acoustic for around 18 years. It's still my favorite acoustic. My other one is a Jaguar acoustic – electric. The Jaguar has that Fender twang. Especially on the treble strings

  • Great content! Alvarez is making some beautiful guitars! I don't have one but they have definitely caught my interest!

    You can see the passion behind the creation of these instruments!

  • Bought an Alvarez 6 string uke. Tuned A to A. Amazing uke very loud, for a uke, but nice sound. It is a baritone so I tuned like a baritone uke but it’s sound much better A to A. Have other guitars but this 6 string uke an awful lot of fun. If Alvarez made an affordable Archtop I would buy it.

  • I've owned several Alvarez guitars over the last 4 decades, and still own 3 of them. IMHO, they are the best sounding guitars for way less the money. I have 2 more that I'm going to purchase in 2023: the MD60EBG, and the ADE90CEAR Artist Elite. Maybe one day I can afford the Yairi DYM60HD, but in the mean time, all these other Alvarez models stand strong over much more expensive Martins, Taylors, Yamahas, etc. I know…because I own those, too…

  • Just watched vid of Yairi guitars being made from scratch to finish in their workshop! It's the most amazing process ever, master crafts people at work on every aspect of guitar.????

  • I have a 48 year old Alvarez 12string use XS 10s on it and love it and I own a3 year old Artist series grand auditorium all Acacia Famosa. Both guitars are amazing give me the sound I want. I had a $4,000.00 Martin that started to come apart after 2 years and in that same period the fish an electronics was worked on 3 times and replaced 2 times and was ready to replace when I got rid of it. I also own a 38 year old Takamine solid mahogany. And it and my 12 look like the day I bought them. So I tell everyone to at least give Alvarez a try as dollar to dollar they are hard to beat. I use XS strings on my Takamine 13ns and my grand 12 s . The XS seem to sound better on dark body guitars and Xts sound better on light top guitars. Thank you for an amazing guitar they play and sound great. Need a AG 70 BG to add to my collection. ????????????????????

  • I have a 1990 Alverez Yairi DY-77 that I bought new. It has been a wonderful instrument. Absolutly trouble free. I have traveled with it, taken it on camping trips and played it almost daily. I have never had to adjust the truss rod, the action is still low without buzz. I have replaced the first 5 frets from normal wear, but that is it. It just sounds better and better with age. Glad to see Alverez is getting their name out there. There are not a lot of dealers in their network and it is impossible to find a Yairi to play in stock at any walk-in store.

  • Picked one up yesterday from my local GC, used for just under $400. Was delivered to my local GC from a different store. I Initially thought that i had a dud with the high E string touching the fret board but once the strings got some tension on them the guitar souinded fine. Not a scratch on it! Wow, nice upgrade from my FG800 Yammie which was my first acoustic (coming from a classic nylon guitar)
    Wow this Alvie is something else! Loud bright sound, very nice shall we say separation of sound! It must be the whole wood case that makes it so bright and articulated.
    It is also easier to play than my yammie. Barre cords and cord changes just a lot smoother. It seems to have a lower action but unlike my yammie no fret buzz.
    It'sa beautiful looker also. Looks and feels like an upscale instrument.
    I tried a few other guitars in the store including a S6 Seagull and a mahogany D10 road series. This one beat both!
    Overall a great purchase, i am pretty buzzed about it!

  • Please, don't waste my time with a couple of wannabes playing a jam session. I want to hear more about the guitars not people playing them. How are they built, what tier levels do they have in performance and price…..

  • The first thing I noticed about these more affordable Alvarez models is that they feature a sort of "fake Alvarez" bridge. That part of the design seems crucial to the construction of their high end guitars. When you look at an expensive Alvarez Yairi, you'll see that the bridge saddle sits in an element that's completely separate from the part that has the bridge pins. There’s an ebony inlay on the top, flush with the surface, and the pins sit directly in that inlay. The idea behind this design, if I understand it correctly, is to have a steeper angle of the strings after they run across the bridge saddle (which would increase the downward pressure and create more vibration), and to minimize the forward pull the strings exercise on the bridge unit. The one-piece bridge design in these cheaper guitars gives up on those advantages. I don't know how these would sound with a "correct" Yairi bridge, but I don't understand why they'd sacrifice the most obvious characteristic that sets their guitars apart from others. Is it that much cheaper to make a "faux-Yairi" bridge?
