The newest guitar model from Iris guitars and one that’s close to our hearts here at Folkway, the MS-00 was designed in conjunction with Folkway Music’s founder, Mark Stutman. Inspired by the L-00 models built by Gibson in 1933, the MS-00 features similar dimensions and scale length to an L-00 made between 1933 and 1942 but is built with Iris’ unique top bracing that mixes scalloped tone bars and straight X brace for a perfect mix of warmth and power. These instruments are sonically the closest cousins to a 1933 L-00 that are currently being manufactured.

Built with a red spruce top and bracing, solid linings, wide bridge string spacing, a comfortably chunky rounded vintage carve, and a scale length of 24.75” the MS features a suite of design elements that are unique to this model among Iris guitars. The MS-00 is finished in a beautiful sunburst satin lacquer and features ivoroid bindings, firestripe pickguard, and vintage-style three-on-a-plate open-geared tuners.

With plenty of power across the strings, excellent bass-end presence, thick, round, and forward trebles, and a perfect balance between fundamental and overtones, this MS-00 is giving some of our vintage L-00s a run for their money!

The Iris ND-200 is a 17” Jumbo designed with a surprisingly light build to offer up Iris’s biggest and bassiest sound. The guitar features a mahogany and red spruce body with super-light tapered and scalloped red spruce X bracing, a small maple bridge plate, and a 6”x1” rectangle bridge. With its 25.4” long scale neck and super-thin finish this is both the liveliest and warmest J-200 sized guitar you’ll ever play. The tone is appropriately massive, too, with oodles of bass and sub-bass, and a really low body resonant frequency that makes itself felt with every strum. It’s a pile of fun to play, and it looks incredible.

Mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard, 1-11/16” nut width, .855” deep at the 1st fret. Excellent playability and fretwork, comfortable rounded 50’s style neck carve, and great set-up with 12-53 strings. Bone nut and saddle, Golden Age bell-end tuning machines, firestripe pickguard.

Based on the Kalamazoo KG-11 model of the 1930s, the Iris SG-11 features the truncated body and familiar sunburst and firestripe looks that define that iconic budget vintage flattop. Iris has evolved on the KG-11 blueprint with their SG-11, and has added X bracing, a truss-rod, and full body bindings to the recipe. The result is a fabulously playable and great sounding small-sized flat top that’s a knock-it-out-of-the-park next-level reimagination of a classic.

Spruce and mahogany body, mahogany neck with rosewood fretboard, ivoroid bindings, sunburst lacquer finish, firestripe pickguard, and open-geared tuners. Small rectangle bridge, bone nut and saddle.

Rounded neck carve with a nut width of 1-3/4”. 24.75” scale, 2-1/4” string spread at the bridge.

The Martin 000 Jr-10 is a sized-down 000-shaped 14-fret guitar with X bracing and a 24” scale. Solid woods throughout, Sapele back and sides and Sitka spruce top; hardwood neck and Richlite fingerboard and bridge.

The body measures a scant 14” across but is proportionally similar to a 000-sized body. Even the bridge is scaled down to maintain the look of a 000!

A lightly built small guitar, the Martin 000 Jr-10 has a lot of tone for such a small guitar. It’s fun to play and perfect for travel.
