KY RAGM65V BK MP

The K Yairi KY RAGM65VMP BK is new from the Masterworks series.

This model made it to the cover page of Jazz Guitar Magazine US. Congratulations Mr Miller !

Do not underestimate these small body KY guitars.
Undeniable good looks....a true stunner !

The resonance and vibrant response is impressive with even light strumming or picking, trebles are crystal clean, and the bass response is clean and balanced.

The right hand response is soft and immediate. I'm always impressed by how precise these small guitars are, absolutely everything is audible. The maple back and sides accentuates this ! Clear and transparent.

Every subtle nuance and modulation are apparent with fingerstyle. Note that the shorter scale gives a somewhat softer, more mellow tone, compared to a 14 fret guitar. The definition in the attack of each note is very precise, the trebles are shiny without being overbearing. Basses are precise and present in the attack, without being boomy.

All solid vintage AAA Flamed Maple for the back and sides, solid AAA Canadian Sitka spruce top.

Individually selected naturally aged woods from the legendary workshops of K Yairi, sorted over the years to season.

Finish and setup are impeccable.
Light and vibrant, with response that allows modulation and expression.

Mother of pearl inlays ornate the rosace and discretely classy abalone KY logo headstock.

Gotoh machineheads, ebony tuning knobs. Really precise, and frankly very tasteful.
Nut and bridge in bone.

Mahogany neck, satin finish, Ebony fingerboard.

43 mm at the nut. Upper bout 21.5cm Lower bout 31 cm Body Length 45.5 cm
Hand carved neck and individually scalloped bracing.

K Yairi dovetail neck joint, hand carved and fitted, with a prolonged neck design under the soundboard.

Neck/body irregularities just don’t happen with a K Yairi guitar because of the extended neck design reaching further under the table.

Delivered in a hardcase. Pure acoustic, no electronics.
