Description

-Hartman Guitars original order model-
This is a special, authentic guitar, custom-made for fingerstyle players, with materials selected in collaboration with the craftsmen at Yairi Studio!

K.YAIRI is a Japanese brand that has maintained its craftsman spirit since the 1970s, with the motto "Made in Japan, from a workshop in Kani City, Gifu Prefecture," and a style of handcrafted production by a small, elite team of around 30 people.
The brand offers a wide range of products, from custom models to affordable models, but its commitment to making everything in Japan has made it popular not only in Japan but around the world, with fans all over the world.

This "YFC CTM" is a one-of-a-kind, special custom model that was created by our store staff, who planned the specifications from scratch and traveled to the Yairi workshop in Gifu to select the materials in order to create a guitar that would be recommended for fingerstyle players.
We selected the 000 size body shape "YF" which is easy to hold and has excellent sound separation, and added a cutaway to allow for playability in high positions.
The top is made of dense, top-quality 4A-grade German spruce, while the back and sides are made of dense, beautifully colored Indian rosewood. Working with the skilled craftsmen at Yairi Studio, we carefully select each piece from our extensive stock of wood to find the best tap tone and appearance.
The vibrant and delicate overtones of a German top, combined with the responsiveness of the YF (000) body, even with a light touch, create an outstanding sound that's perfect for fingerstyle playing. This guitar also features a long 645mm scale, making it the so-called OM style, and its firm tension makes it ideal for those who frequently use open tunings or who prefer a fast attack.

The nut width is a little wider than usual for a Yairi guitar, at 44mm, and the neck has a thin, U-shaped profile, allowing for smooth fingerstyle playing. The wider fingerboard also allows for a clearer sense of separation between the individual strings.
The tuning pegs are the popular "GOTOH 510" tuners, known for their high precision and modern look. The rosewood binding and black-painted single-ring wood rosette create a chic impression. Even the smallest details, like the original headstock shape, were carefully considered.

Both the sound and the looks are so good that it could be mistaken for the work of an independent producer.
Considering the level of perfection and luxurious specs, the price is surprisingly reasonable...
This is a special custom model that is one of a kind, so don't miss this opportunity to purchase one!
