Traditional mahogany guitars? Yes, and more. The Traditional Series is actually variations on a theme of mahogany, where the guitar maker’s most classic tonewood is carefully crafted to offer you a limitless palette of sonic color.

Traditional choices? No, not in the least. For you will find the same uncompromising hand craftsmanship and rich tonality in every Yairi instrument.

You’ll find a unique, even daring instrument choice, a baritone guitar, whose sound is unlike any other, anywhere. And you’ll have the Alvarez System 600T Preamp/EQ, offering the most natural acoustic sound available, a built-in digital tuner, and the flexibility to add a magnetic sound hole pickup or internal microphone to the mix.

Alvarez Yairi acoustic guitars are made in a stubbornly old-fashioned workshop, hidden in the still beauty of the Japanese mountains in the village of Gifu — far from the computerized factories of high-volume guitar manufacturers. In fact, when other guitar companies were building even larger factories, Kazuo Yairi, was buying wood. When other makers moved to simpler techniques, Yairi remained resolute in honoring the slower, classic construction methods like the labor intensive dovetail neck joint and hand shaped bracing. It is the fruit of these time-honored techniques that create the exquisite instruments that are rare treasures to hold and to hear, with the Alvarez Yairi hallmark of sweetness and balance that is world renowned as "the Yairi sound."

Alvarez Yairi guitars are offered in a select variety of standard body shapes, sizes and finish details. Each guitar is a one-of-a-kind work of art, with its own unique tone and cosmetic qualities. In fact, every Yairi is as individual as you are.

Alvarez System 600T MKII

The Alvarez System 600T Preamp/Eq is designed to offer the finest acoustic guitar tone reproduction available. The System 600T provides a broad range of sonic control, mixing capability for different combinations of piezo/magnetic/microphone transducers, and features an on-board digital chromatic tuner.

1) BAT Battery Indicator

2) PIEZO: This control adjusts the level of the under-saddle bridge piezo pickup.

3) AUX: This control adjusts the level of the auxiliary input, either a sound hole pickup, or an internally mounted microphone. (See optional Alvarez ACM50 Condenser Microphone)

4) LEVEL: This switch adjusts the input level of the AUX input. When using a magnetic sound hole pickup, this switch should be set in the up, or -20dB position. When an internal microphone is used, this switch should be set in the down, or +20 dB position.

5) PHASE: This switch reverses the polarity of the PIEZO input relative to the AUX input.

6) TREBLE: This slider provides +/- 15 dB of boost/cut at 10kHz. In its center position, there will be no effect.

7) BASS: This slider provides +/- 15dB of boost/cut at 100Hz. In its center position, there will be no effect.

8) MID: This slider works in conjunction with the MID FREQ control. It provides +/- 15 dB of boost/cut at the center frequency determined by the MID FREQ control.

9) MID FREQ: This control adjusts the center frequency of the MID slider, variable from 600Hz to 1.2kHz. If the MID slider is set to its center position, no effect will be heard. Maximum effect of this control can be heard as the MID slider is set for boost or cut. Note: The main Eq system (TREBLE/MID/MID FREQ/BASS) controls will only affect the piezo input signal. These controls have no effect on the AUX input signal.

10) MASTER: This control is the Master Volume, which adjusts the overall output of the System 600T, including both the PIEZO and AUX inputs.

11) NOTCH: This switch engages a notch filter, which is used to control feedback in live performance applications.

12) FREQ: This control adjusts the center frequency of the “anti-feedback notch.”
