Tonewoods of the highest grade are naturally seasoned for years to decades before being used in the production process.  Like all Yairi Masterworks, this guitar is made from premium tonewood that has been seasoned naturally for 5 to 15 years in the perfect climate of Kani.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrand Auditoriums like the GYM70CESHB are perfect all-round instruments, adept at both strumming and fingerpicking and ideal for a guitarist needing a guitar that can do it all. The GYM70CESHB has been carefully designed to take advantage of the Grand Auditorium’s best properties and is fitted with the LR Baggs VTC system with Element pick up and soundhole console.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GYM70CESHB features the FST2 bracing system, a very forward shifted X-brace design which was the result of years of research and development. FST2 features center scooped scalloping to the main braces and asymmetric scalloping to the two tone bars. In this way, they optimize the separation between each string and maximize balance and projection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurther innovation comes with the Direct Coupled Bridge. This system displays the craftsmanship with which these guitars are made. The DC Bridge means the pins actually go into the top of the guitar, taking the vibration to the heart of the soundboard and simultaneously increasing the break angle from the saddle to the top. This increased down pressure raises string tension, giving the guitar a very responsive feel and adding quality to its volume and sustain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther features include hand cut and assembled pearl and abalone inlays, ivoroid binding, ebony fingerboard, ebony bridge and ebony bridge pins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a truly impressive guitar, in excellent condition, and at a great price.  It's been setup to play perfect by the techs in our shop.  The original hardshell case included.  If you're in the market for a guitar like this, you've found what you're looking for here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"size18 keyfeature_title\"\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"key_guitarfeatures\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Wood: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eSolid AAA Sitka Spruce\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Finish: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eShadowburst\/Gloss\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBack and Sides Wood: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eSolid East Indian Rosewood\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eGrand Auditorium\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eOne piece mahogany, 50\/50 Semi gloss finish, Extended neck joint\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBridge: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eEbony Direct Coupled\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlays: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003eAbalone \u0026amp;
