This is a new discussion group for guitar lovers and fans of master
luthier Kazuo Yairi and his great line of guitars created by his
craftsmen in Japan for distribution under the K. Yairi label as well
as through Alvarez-Yairi(St. Louis Music Co.)in the United States.
In an era where many guitar manufacturers have employed computers,
lasers, and robotics in a race to produce more guitars faster, Yairi
still chooses to create guitars of distinction the old way...by hand.

I got a chance recently to play the cy-128ce, which is a yairi classical. Beautifully built guitar, cedar top, rswood b/s, ebony fretboard, and built in electronics. It's expensive though...but I'll keep my eye on this baby. I also own a dy84 which plays and sounds great.

I have found it extremely difficult to locate any useful information on the older Takas and how other find they are ageing, playing.
I am frankly suprised takamine does not retain a history of their products; at least the successes if not the failures.
I am interested in F540S 1982 (ebonyfinger board) The 1992 Ltd edition cedar/koa, and an all mahogany 1981 dreadnought. All info gratefully accepted!

I have recently purchased the above referenced guitar. I am interested in the history of the Johnson brand of guitars in general and more specifically of the modedl I own. How old? retail price? How good is the Johnson brand when compared to other manufacturers? I will appreciate any information or references you can email me about. Thanks, RRG

I ran across your ad. I don't know if you're still looking but I am thinking about selling mine...Model 1127-4, Serial Number 11063. Purchased new in 1973. This model does not have a pickup...it's acoustic only.

: Write back if interested.
I bought the slim version of this guitar in about 1978 for USD400. The sound was loud and punchy to the extent that I was scared to play it at home. Over the next ten years, the top adoped an 'S' shape and it became difficult to set up a good action.
I don't have the guitar any more, but maybe you should check the flatness of the top before you buy one of these.
I would like to know of any information that you could give me on a Ovation E8199. Ive recently have come across this guitar and havent seen another like it. Its a solid body electric and is the shape of a battle ax. Any info would be appreciated and helpful thank you.
I was wondering if you could tell me what year my epiphone g-400 was made. The serial number is I6060421. So I don't if you can even do this but it would be great if you could. Also if you could tell me how much it is worth. Ok thanks a lot.
: : : how much would an epiphone acoustic guitar with a serial number of (Not Visible - Faded) and a model number of FT-140 be worth? I think the model was produced in 1975 and I believe is Japan made
I don't know if you can help me or not, but here goes. My brother has purchased a signed (by Peter Frampton) epiphone nighthawk or so that's what I think it is. The guitar is solid red, neck and all, and has the same shape as the current nighthawk, and the same pickup configuration. It has a rosewood finger board with pearl dot inlays. Do you know if there is anyway for me to correctly identify this guitar, and also do you know what the guitar would be approximately worth?
It probabely is an ordinary Nighthawk Special. In the nineties they came in black and red. As far as I know they are still on sale in some stores. Without the signature the guitar is not very valuable. With the Frampton-signature: who knows ? It might well be an collectors item. A real Frampton-fan might pay a load. Don't weather Frampton still has a fanclub, but you might try finding out !

Do you know if there is anyway for me to correctly identify this guitar, and also do you know what the guitar would be approximately worth?
Re: signed epiphone
PS: A used Nighthawk Special is normally rated at aprox. $ 300,- (sorry, forgot to mention it...).
Re: signed epiphone
It probabely is an ordinary Nighthawk Special. In the nineties they came in black and red. As far as I know they are still on sale in some stores. Without the signature the guitar is not very valuable. With the Frampton-signature: who knows ? It might well be an collectors item. A real Frampton-fan might pay a load.
