K.Yairi SO-MH1 2015
K.Yairi is an established maker of acoustic guitars. Known as a manufacturer that boasts stable quality, with instruments handcrafted by artisans in a workshop in Gifu Prefecture. Numerous musicians, both professional and amateur, use K.Yairi guitars.
This time, we have received the "SO-MH1," a collaboration model with Shimamura Gakki. This is a 2015 model.
A compact and easy-to-hold body with a matte sunburst finish that evokes an antique atmosphere—even after about 15 years since its release, this model remains a bestseller. With a spruce solid top and mahogany for the sides and back, despite the small body size, the sound is truly worthy of Yairi! The neck is also thin and easy to grip, making playability outstanding!
The finish, named "Vintage Sunburst," features a "vintage" atmosphere where the wood grain in the center becomes deeper in tone. The varied appearance of each piece of wood used is one of the appeals of the "1" series.
The tuner features GOTOH's top-of-the-line 510 series pegs, transmitting string vibrations to the instrument with minimal loss and providing excellent tuning stability.
Among all collaboration model lineups, this is the only one featuring mahogany sides and back with a satin finish on the top, creating a refined appearance with supreme tonal resonance—a model we recommend for all types of players.

• Regarding the truss rod, for product protection purposes, we only check approximately 45 degrees in both the tightening and loosening directions. (When marked "Ample room available," this indicates 45 degrees of clearance in both directions.)
