Iris DF
Hand built in a small-shop setting in Burlington, Vermont, Iris Guitars offer exceptional tone and playability, vintage-tinged designs and unique detailing, solid tonewoods, and nitrocellulose lacquer finish.
The DF model is a slope-shouldered dreadnought with a body shape and tonality that’s not unlike a late 40’s J-45. Built with a red spruce top and mahogany back and sides; small rectangle bridge, a light build with scalloped tonebars, and a medium length scale, the DF offers plenty of warmth and openness, a little bit of thump, and well-balanced trebles.
Dressed up with a deco firestripe pickguard, ivoroid bindings and sunburst top finish, three-on-a-plate Golden Age open geared tuners, and bold Iris headstock logo, the DF model is both familiar and strikingly different simultaneously.
Round neck with a full feeling C carve, 16” fingerboard radius, and a 1-3/4” nut width. Bone nut and saddle, 25” scale, 2-7/32” string spread at the bridge. Katalox fingerboard and bridge.
With TKL hardshell case
Individual instruments may vary in appearance.
