Manufacturer's Description for Alvarez CY116 Yairi Classical Acoustic Guitar (with Case)

Listen to the Voice of Enchantment
You hear it in the elegant pacing of a classical air. You see it in the vivid charm of a folk dance. This is the voice of the guitarist who speaks with nylon strings. This is the spirit of the Yairi Classical.

Perhaps the deep, warm bass of Indian Rosewood or the crystalline treble of the burled Mahogany is what draws you in. Or maybe your eyes are held captive by the spidery, black streaks that dance across the rich Brazilian Rosewood, or the intricate mosaic rosette that accents the soundhole. Until you play a Yairi Classical, you can't understand the attraction; once you play one, you can't deny the attraction. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Alvarez products.

"Wonderful"

Sound: Rich, full, expressive classical. Feature: Tuners aren't top-end; i replaced mine. They're not bad by any stretch, but I docked it a point. The Wow Factor: This is an exceptionally beautiful guitar. The burl is pronounced on back and sides. This is the first guitar my wife ever called "beautiful". Overall: This is a life-time purchase for me. I treasure this instrument.

Style of Music: Rock, blues
