KY CYTMBK - Handmade in Japan
This K Yairi KY CYTMBK is another true Masterworks delight and has become a flagship model for K Yairi.
This model has unique tone, certainly a magical guitar with pedigree history.
Dominic Miller's favourite classical guitar, the sound of so many hit songs with Sting, and an endless source of inspiration for his solo career. The original model in amber honey tint was a guitar that Dom carried with him everywhere he went.
One day a few years ago, we had the idea of Custom Shop making a black version, with the top translucid black, but transparent black back and sides. This was to allow the flamed maple to be admired. We shipped the first one to Dom to a hotel on the road, a few days before he was due to arrive. In classic Dominic Miller style, he gave it to a friend of his, rang and said he'd like another one. A year later another one arrived. He played it on most of his solo and Dominic Miller Band tours since.
The finest selection of naturally aged vintage flamed maple from the legendary workshops of K Yairi, combined with finest sitka spruce top.
A flagship model available exclusively, in very limited numbers. Delivered in a hardcase. Pure acoustic, no electronics.
