Sound Pure's Take
Discover the undeniable allure of the Iris DF Burst, an acoustic guitar crafted for players who demand both sublime tone and rock-solid reliability! The vibrant pairing of a resonant mahogany back and sides with a lively Sitka Spruce top, braced with scalloped Adirondack Spruce, delivers a voice that’s rich, warm, and wonderfully dynamic. Feel the effortless playability across the Indian Rosewood fingerboard with its comfortable 1-11/16” nut width. Finished in a handsome open-pore, natural satin nitrocellulose, this instrument isn't just a guitar—it's a smart investment in your musical future, promising endless hours of joyful, inspired playing. Tuned to perfection and strung with D’Addario XS Coated strings, this guitar is absolutely ready to sing right out of its protective hardshell TKL case!
From Iris Guitar Company
A classic slope shouldered dreadnought named after Iris co-founder, Dale Fairbanks.
“It was shortly after Adam’s conception of Iris Guitar Company that I was invited to join and help with it’s development. The first model, the OG, was soon followed by my personal favorite guitar design that we named after myself: the DF. A slope shouldered dreadnought modeled closely after depression era guitars coming out of Kalamazoo during the mid and late ‘30’s, it offers the perfect combo of grit, funk and warmth.” - Dale Fairbanks
