Masterfully handcrafted in Japan, this dreadnought offers robust tones and easy playability.
The renowned Japanese guitar maker Yairi has created a masterpiece with the DY70ce dreadnought cutaway acoustic-electric guitar. Handcrafted from premium tonewoods using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this guitar delivers a rich, balanced tone perfect for any genre. The solid Sitka spruce top resonates with full-bodied warmth and projection, while the solid rosewood back and sides add articulate note definition and a touch of sweetness.
A Neck and Fingerboard Made for Smooth Playing
The DY70ce's mahogany neck features a comfortable oval profile that glides under your fingers. The rosewood fingerboard has a moderately flat 9.5" radius and smooth frets, allowing effortless transitions along the neck. A cutaway provides full access to the upper frets, letting you explore the DY70ce's full tonal range. The nut width of 1 3/4" gives you ample room for complex chords and single-note runs. Overall, the neck is designed for a playing experience as enjoyable as the DY70ce's tone.
Plug in and Shape Your Sound
The DY70ce comes equipped with an LR Baggs Stage Pro Bronze pickup and preamp system, allowing you to plug in and shape your acoustic tone. The Stage Pro Bronze combines an undersaddle pickup with a 3-band EQ and volume control, providing flexible control over your amplified sound. You can add warmth with the bass EQ, sparkle with the treble control and midrange fullness with the mid control. A built-in tuner ensures you're always in tune when plugged in. The pickup captures the DY70ce's balanced acoustic voice with impressive accuracy for a natural amplified tone.
Premium Appointments and Lifelong Quality
Yairi outfits the DY70ce with premium appointments like a rosewood bridge and bone nut and saddle for resonant tone transfer and tuning stability. The gloss finish brings out the depth and beauty of the tonewoods. Built using time-tested techniques and the highest quality materials, the DY70ce is an instrument that will inspire you for life. Yairi's dedication to excellence results in guitars with a level of craftsmanship and musicality found in few other brands. The DY70ce delivers a playing experience as stunning as its looks.
