The Deviser One Day Guitar Show 2024 is just around the corner! Here is some information about a Headway model that will appear at this year’s show!
This will be the second edition of the Kyozakura model, which was well received at the Spring 2024 Special Showcase event!

The second edition of the finest cherry blossom trees from Kyoto Prefecture is now in full bloom!

The Headway Kyozakura model was produced to commemorate the 10th anniversary and is made of sakura, or “Japanese cherry tree” wood, grown in Kyoto.
The Kyozakura model, which received a great response at the Deviser 2024 Special Showcase event, is now available with a new body shape and cherry blossom design.

The inlay work on the fingerboard is made of multiple materials to represent snowflakes and cherry blossom petals.

The beautiful winter-themed coloring and designs are inspired by the Kyoto scenery. The pickguard also features a clever inlay design.

The Kyozakura model, using Sakura produced in Kyoto Prefecture, makes its appearance!

The Kyozakura model is one of the main attractions of the Deviser One Day Guitar Show 2024 and is made of cherry wood from trees grown in Kyoto Prefecture.
The wood has a straight grain pattern and an elegant Kyoto-like quality to it.

The Sakura wood from Kyoto Prefecture is characterized by its elegant color and grain.

Of course, the design incorporates a Kyoto theme, with the flow of the Kamo River, the bridges over it, and the “weeping sakura” that is characteristic of Kyoto.
In addition, we collaborated with “Tatenoya”, a traditional weaver in Kyoto, to produce a custom-made sound hole label and a custom-made sound hole cover using Kyoto textiles.

Incorporating the Kyoto flavor into the design

The headstock top has a design of a bridge over the Kamo River and weeping cherry blossom trees.

Techniques and traditions infused with a modern feel

Upon receiving news of the arrival of cherry wood from Kyoto Prefecture, the project was set in motion with the desire to work with the chemistry of Kyoto’s traditional culture. The result was “KyoOri”, which utilizes “Nishijin-style” textile techniques.

“Kyoori” is a new and free weaving technique based on the concept of “textiles for everyday life” that uses the techniques of Nishijin brocade to create traditional patterns with innovative colors and materials, or to rearrange traditional patterns.
The checkered pattern is also associated with the meaning of prosperity.
