The MS-00 was developed on the insistence of Mark Stutman of Folkway, for whom it’s named. This mid-thirties style guitar, with its short scale, is a wonderful complement to our line of small bodied Iris. Mark is a very talented luthier who is considered to be the expert in vintage Gibson guitars. We are thrilled to be working with him on this new guitar!
IRIS GUITARS are the new production model manufactured by Circle Strings and Fairbanks Guitars. After many years of custom guitar building, we are proud to introduce an affordable, high-end acoustic guitar line, MADE IN THE USA, that is the perfect tool for any beginner or professional musician. Making an affordable, high end acoustic guitar is not an easy task at such a small level. Because of this, this is a bare bones model with basic appointments to excite even the serious guitar aficionado. If you have been interested in a Fairbanks or Circle Strings guitar, but can't afford it, this is the perfect introduction to our guitars. Our goal is to make the best guitars we can for the player.
