Default MOVING SALE: 2018 Iris OG - $old

Looking to sell my Iris OG. It was their third guitar ever and signed as built in 2018. It's completely stock in Euro spruce and I think mahogany. Condition is excellent to great, just a ding or two on the top and some light shirt button type scratches on the back. Comes with a rigid gator lightweight case.

The sound and build quality is excellent. The tone is very nicely balanced and strong, I just want something with a little more bass response.

Natural finish
1 11/16in nut
2 5/32in saddle spacing

New Price is $old plus shipping and paypal fees. PM or email at gandhi85 AT aol DOT com with questions/offers.

I own a DF model and it's just a killer guitar. If you are after a vintage type guitar without the price tag these are really hard to beat.

I know this company is fairly new but it's one to really look at. Bang for the buck I don't think you could do any better.

Best of luck with your sale!

Photos added...for some reason my phone picked up the light in the room with a very yellow-ish tint. For reference, the bedspread under the guitar is actually white and light blue.

I’m surprised that this hasn’t been snatched up by someone comfortable with a 1 11/16 nut; if this was a 1 3/4 I’d have bought it yesterday.

I agree, I'm a steadfast 1.75 guy.

This is a great deal on a guitar and guitar company that is sure to increase in value and demand. Plus, early serial numbers are cool!

Wasn't aware of this maker. If the DF (J45) model is any indication of their quality...wow!

Default Since this has already been bumped..

FWIW, I ordered my Iris OG (#66) with a 1 3/4" nut and the hand feel is wider/roomier than any of my Martin or Collings with 1 3/4" nut. Probably a reflection of profile but if you are on the fence w/ the 1 11/16" that might be of interest to you.

Incredible guitars for the value, especially at this used discount price.

A few asked about the string spacing at the nut. I measured at 1.5 inches, so I think it feels a little more roomy than a typical 1 11/16 inch nut. I switch between that, 1 3/4, and 1 7/8 regularly, so I'm not the best judge, but hopefully that's helpful for those who might be interested.
