K.Yairi / 2025 Model LAPIS Topaz
— A glow and warmth like a gemstone. The ultimate acoustic companion for a lifetime
“Standard natural and sunburst guitars are fine, but I want something that brings out my personality more—a gorgeous, beautiful guitar…”
“Wouldn’t you like to find a special one that brightens up the room just by being there on the living room rack, and makes you want to reach for it every day without thinking?”
When choosing a guitar, looks are an important factor that strongly influence your motivation to play.
However, mass-produced instruments made to chase flashy looks often sacrifice the acoustic guitar’s essential qualities of rich resonance and playability, and before you know it, you end up with a guitar that you can no longer bring yourself to play.
A guitar that combines “beauty that makes you want to hold it,” “the finest sound even admired by professionals,” and “quality that you can cherish for years” is not so easy to find.
What fulfills all of those high ideals and satisfies your desire to own one at the highest level is the K.Yairi LAPIS Topaz, handcrafted one by one by skilled artisans in the Kani City, Gifu workshop.
Created around the theme of the gemstone “Topaz,” a symbol of hope and knowledge, this masterpiece is a miraculous balance of K.Yairi’s superb woodworking craftsmanship and beautifully captivating coloring, truly deserving to be called a “gem you can play.”
This individual, which began production in 2025, has a splendid feature that stimulates the player’s sensitivity.
— Alluring Topaz Finish
The greatest appeal is the Topaz color, full of transparency that lets the beautiful wood grain show through.
Depending on the angle of the light, it reveals an elegant luster and a warm expression, with an artistic finish that makes you want to keep looking at it forever.
— Rich Resonance Brought to Life by Pure Domestic Craftsmanship
While maintaining an excellent compact size that is easy for smaller players to hold, the meticulous design of skilled artisans produces a clear tone with rich overtones that exceeds its size.
From its fresh 2025 build, you can fully appreciate the process of it growing into a sound that is uniquely yours as you play it more and more.
K.Yairi guitars, made entirely by hand, are produced in limited numbers, and especially models with beautiful see-through colors like this “LAPIS Topaz” are extremely rare in circulation.
Also, due to the nature of a transparent finish, the grain pattern of the wood used as the base is completely different on each instrument.
In other words, no two instruments in the world have this beautiful expression.
Healing to look at, moving to play.
An acoustic guitar like a gemstone that vividly colors your musical life.
Why not welcome this beautiful masterpiece, proudly bearing the quality of Japanese craftsmanship, into your hands right now?
