{"product_id":"872630","title":"Headway HD-YOZAKURA'26\/STD Headway","description":"From the Headway Standard Series comes the 2026 limited edition cherry blossom model, 'HD-YOZAKURA'26\/STD'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Headway Sakura model, which has been around since 2014, is a special acoustic guitar unique to Headway, expressing the beauty of Japan's cherry blossoms through actual domestically sourced cherry wood and delicate inlay work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The body top is made of Sitka spruce, and the sides and back are made of domestically sourced mountain cherry wood (Yamazakura). The powerful low-mids characteristic of hard mountain cherry wood, along with the sweet, warm sound unique to cherry wood, are its main attractions. It also boasts a rich resonance and excellent response thanks to its all-solid wood construction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The 2026 model's color scheme is \"Night Cherry Blossom Gradient,\" inspired by cherry blossoms swaying in the moonlight. The beautiful paintwork, layered with pink pearl, fantastically evokes the image of cherry blossom petals dancing in the night breeze and the shimmering night sky.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The headstock features a brushstroke-style design of a woman holding a Japanese umbrella. The fretboard uses multiple materials to create a beautiful inlay depicting the winding trunk of a cherry tree. The overall finish is highly artistic, evoking a sense of Japanese aesthetics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The bracing utilizes the \"34 Semi-Forward Shifted Scalloped X-Bracing,\" a unique design developed by Headway Master Builder Yasuo Momose after studying the structure of a 1934 vintage guitar. By positioning the X-bracing closer to the soundhole, it achieves excellent bass response and a rich volume. Furthermore, by positioning it approximately 5mm closer to the bridge than a forward shift, the stability of the top plate is also taken into consideration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The body features a classic dreadnought shape, accommodating a wide range of playing styles from powerful strumming to delicate fingerpicking. This special, limited-edition guitar for 2026 combines Headway's signature craftsmanship with the beauty of Japanese cherry blossoms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[SPEC]\u003cbr\u003e Body Top: Sitka Spruce (Solid)\u003cbr\u003e Body Side \u0026amp; Back: Yamazakura (Solid)\u003cbr\u003e Neck: African Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard: Richlite\u003cbr\u003e Nut: Bone\u003cbr\u003e Saddle: Bone\u003cbr\u003e Machineheads: GOTOH SG301 AB01 GG\u003cbr\u003e Frets: HHF-AG2S\u003cbr\u003e Scale: 645mm (25.4 inches)\u003cbr\u003e Neck Grip: Slim U\u003cbr\u003e Width at Nut: 43mm\u003cbr\u003e Bracing34Semi Forward Shifted, Scalloped X Bracing\u003cbr\u003e Finish: Thin Urethane\u003cbr\u003e Strings: Elixir NANOWEB Light (.012-.053)\u003cbr\u003e Color: YZP-GRD (Night Cherry Blossom Pearl Gradient)\u003cbr\u003e Accessories: Hard case, hex wrench, warranty card","brand":"Headway","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68708286005361,"sku":"872630","price":1750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/872630_01.jpg?v=1794364947","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/fr\/products\/872630","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
