Iris Guitar Company RCM 000 - 2023 - Natural, Adirondack Top, RW Back / Sides & Slotted Headstock. NEW (Authorized Dealer)
From Iris Guitars:
"Established in 2018 as a division of Circle Strings, Iris Guitar Company is a small team of highly skilled and seasoned luthiers who are dedicated to building a modern instrument that captures vintage-inspired tone and aesthetics. Iris guitars are handmade using a combination of state of the art techniques and old world craftsmanship. The model line represent our interpretation of depression era flattops, admired guitars from the mid century, and are meant to serve the everyday musician. For this, we have taken measures to provide and instrument that is simple, reliable, and elegant all at an affordable price point. In fact, you're probably going to want two Iris Guitars at this rate."
Adam Buchwald and his team at Iris are building some of the most responsive and inspiring acoustics that we have ever played; vintage instruments included. These guitars feel and sound like they would be at least double their price point. The bass response is just outrageous, as is the projection and nuance of even the smaller bodied models.
The RCM-000 features a slimmer body than most Iris instruments. It is essentially a 000-12 fret Martin style instrument paired with a 25" scale. This model retains the comfort, clarity and nuanced tonality of a small bodied flat top guitar, however it is to large to be considered a parlor. The 12-fret neck joint places the guitar's bridge right over the sound-board for a clear, warm and lively tonal response that is full of rich harmonic overtones. The RCM-000 delivers more than enough volume to excel in nearly any musical situation; however this models complex voice lends itself beautifully to finger-picked styles of playing.
