Use the Alvarez Compare Tool to choose up to three instruments and compare their voicing though real-time switching across various playing styles. We hope this helps in evaluating and choosing between Alvarez models and helps in experiencing how different body shapes and wood configurations perform.
In the small town of Kani, nestled in the hills north of Nagoya, Japan, lies the renowned K. Yairi guitar factory. They have been crafting guitars here for over 80 years.
Alvarez and Yairi have enjoyed an uninterrupted 55-year partnership in producing exquisite guitars, made by hand, from naturally seasoned woods with an unwavering commitment to quality and design. Every neck is spoke shaved by hand, braces are carved, and tops are tuned to perfection. The attention to detail and quality of the build are impeccable.
