What We Think

Handcrafted in Burlington, Vermont, this Iris WE (Wilcutt Edition) reimagines the classic OM platform with a long 25.5" scale length, pairing a solid Sitka spruce top with solid mahogany back and sides. Dressed in a rich Tobacco Burst finish with clean ivoroid body binding, it delivers remarkable openness, punchy fundamental warmth, and enhanced string tension for dynamic flatpicking and fingerstyle clarity. Strikingly lightweight at just 3 lbs 3 oz, it features vintage-style open-back tuners with cream buttons, a bold firestripe pickguard, a comfortable C/D neck profile with a 1-11/16" nut width, and a 14-fret body joint, blending vintage American bench-built mojo with modern precision.

About Manufacturer

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.
