Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The right-handed Yairi WY1 is a six-string folk acoustic-electric with a sunburst satin finish, a cutaway body, and onboard L.R. Baggs electronics. Its solid Western Red cedar top is paired with rosewood back and sides, while the mahogany neck uses a Soft V profile. The cutaway gives access to the upper frets, and the sidemounted preamp combines a 2-band EQ with a tuner for amplified use. A hardshell case is included.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Acoustic-electric playing that benefits from onboard 2-band EQ and a built-in tuner.
- Parts that use upper-fret access provided by the folk body's cutaway.
- Players seeking a right-handed six-string with a 1.75-inch nut width.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
