With its Dakota Red lacquer finish, cool pearloid pickguard, and pre-CBS clay dot rosewood fretboard, this 1964 Fender Musicmaster II checks off a lot of boxes. It’s a great looking guitar, and one that’s a lot of fun to play. The Jaguar-scale neck is small and fast, the solid bridge offers way better tuning stability than the trem version, it’s super-light weight, and the pickup sounds great.

This Fender Musicmaster II is a completely original guitar with an L-prefix serial number. The pots date to the 22nd week of 1964, and the neck is dated August of 1964. The neck has an A-width of 1.5” and a 1st fret depth of .785”. The scale is 24” and neck depth tapers up to .960 at the 12th fret. The pickup DC resistance measures 5.8k, which happens to also be what the guitar weighs at, in lbs.

In great shape, this Fender Musicmaster II shows a bit of playwear to its frets and finish, but nothing extreme. It’s been set-up in-shop and plays easily and cleanly.

An excellent-sounding late model from Gibson’s Bozeman plant, this 2012 SJ-200 offers an open voice with an impressive bass response, strong fundamental, and all of the power that one would expect from a guitar of this size. The J-200 responds well to both a heavy and light attack with a flat pick, making it an all-around excellent strummer. Though this style of guitar is not often associated with fingerstyle playing, this SJ-200 responds with a beautiful warmth when played with fingers.

While many of the modern SJ-200 Studio models are built with walnut back and sides, this 12-year-old model is made with the maple back and sides of the Standard model. Finished in a beautiful sunburst with a nicely figured set of maple on the instrument’s back, this SJ-200 is a gorgeous guitar. The outline on the pickguard is a nice touch, making the guitar quite a sharp-looking package. Stage ready with a Fishman Ellipse Aura pickup and preamp system.

Scale length of 25.4″, nut width of 1-11/16″, 2-3/16″ spacing at bridge, 1st fret depth of 0.834″, 12th fret depth of 0.886″, weight of 5lbs 8oz.

One of ten Sarah Ryan custom painted 2022 Iris limited release guitars, this Iris AB Sarah Ryan features handpainted artwork overtop a black-finished AB model with white bindings and pickguard. Sarah Ryan is a Burlington, Vermont based visual artist who has gained renown in the guitar world for her work with Creston Guitars, also of Burlington. Sarah Ryan’s painted Crestons have something of a cult-like following and are gracing stages all over the world with high-level guitarists of all kinds. Her work with Iris Guitars is limited to 10 unique painted flat-tops a year; and we ordered this custom AB, complete with white accents as one of these 10. (If you’re wondering, Iris Guitars founder Adam Buchwald shared shop space with Creston Lee for a number of years before moving to a larger facility in 2020).

A beautiful guitar with the AB’s incredible warmth and string balance, super-light built, and excellent playability. Mahogany and spruce with scalloped/tapered X bracing, 25” scale, 1-11/16” nut and 2.2” string spread at the saddle.

Styled after the rarest of Gibson’s 1930s L-shaped models – the 14 fret rosewood Nick Lucas Special – the Iris MS-00 Deep Body features Indian rosewood back and sides, an Adirondack red spruce top, and a body depth that tapers from 4-1/2” to 4-3/16”. Like all of our MS models, the guitar is built with solid linings, a vintage-inspired neck carve, and a bridge string spread of about 2-5/16”. It’s an incredible guitar, with a heavenly feel, great looks, and – most importantly – beautiful tone.

A light and careful build, top-tier materials, a thin lacquer finish, and a well thought out blueprint are the ingredients to Iris’ famously good tone. This Deep Body MS-00 offers all that and then some, with the note separation, power, and bass handling of rosewood; the snap, clarity, and dryness of red spruce; and the inviting warmth of a shorter 24.75” scale length. It’s a dark-but-defined guitar, that offers an enticing balance of fundamental presence and sweet overtone color.

The neck carve is full and round, much like a 50’s Gibson, but with a 1-3/4” nut. Neck thickness is .875” at the 1st fret and .915” at the 9th. Rosewood fretboard and bridge, bone nut and saddle, simplified headstock logo, Stew Mac Golden Age tuners with aged-white buttons. Firestripe pickguard, single-ring rosette, ivoroid bindings, and satin finish throughout.

This Iris MS-00 Deep Body comes with a hardshell case.
