Yutaka Iida

I went to Walkin, a jazz guitar store in Shibuya, Tokyo, a couple of times to compare it with other guitars, and I was very attracted by its playability, tone, and looks. In addition to the aforementioned reasons, I continue to use it because of its light weight and the fact that even though it is a semi-acoustic, it has a boxy sound similar to that of a hollow body.

I use it entirely on my second leader album . I find it to be highly playable, especially when playing my own music. For me, it is an indispensable guitar for playing contemporary jazz and fusion music.
