The Alvarez Yairi CY75ce cutaway classical acoustic-electric guitar provides a premium playing experience for serious musicians. Handcrafted in Japan by master luthiers with over 80 years of experience, the CY75ce delivers a rich, balanced tone from select tonewoods and innovative bracing. The solid western red cedar top resonates freely, projecting shimmering highs and a robust low end. The rosewood back and sides add warmth and depth. Alvarez's new FST6 bracing system provides strength while allowing the top to vibrate, resulting in a compelling openness and clarity.

Premium Woods and Construction

As you run your fingers over the CY75ce's glossy finish, you'll appreciate the quality of materials and craftsmanship. The lightweight mahogany neck has a comfortable oval profile that plays fast, while the rosewood fingerboard offers a smooth surface under your fingertips. The bone nut and saddle provide optimal string spacing for complex chords and melodies. From the hand-carved braces to the bookmatched back, every detail of the CY75ce is meticulously executed.

Cutaway Body For Full Access

The CY75ce's cutaway body gives you complete access to the upper frets, ideal for solos and embellishments. The cutaway does not diminish the guitar's acoustic resonance, allowing full, balanced tone throughout the fingerboard. Whether you play classical, flamenco or acoustic styles, the cutaway lets your musical expression reach new heights.

Hybrid Pickup System For Amplified Versatility

Alvarez's innovative pickup system is the first of its kind, blending LR Baggs Element piezo and StagePro Bronze pickups. The StagePro Bronze capture the guitar's acoustic warmth while the piezos provide clear, pristine amplification. Blend the pickups to shape your amplified tone from natural acoustic resonance to crystalline highs. With a full range of dynamics and tonal control, the CY75ce suits any performance situation from intimate coffeehouse gigs to open-air festivals.
