Founded by luthier Adam Buchwald, Iris Guitars offers high-quality, handmade guitars designed for everyday musicians. Drawing inspiration from Depression-era and mid-century designs, each guitar features all-solid tonewoods, hand-made craftsmanship, and stunning build quality, at a price point typically reserved for factory-built guitars.

The Iris OG 'Relic Natural' Acoustic Guitar represents the flagship model that launched Iris Guitars into the spotlight. This instrument is a modern take on a vintage classic, offering a comfortable 25” scale and a smooth C-shaped neck profile. Crafted with all-solid spruce and mahogany, the OG model offers a warm, dry voice with an impressive midrange response, perfect for various playing styles, from strumming to fingerpicking. The 'Relic Natural' finish gives it an aged look and feel, with subtle lacquer checking and a yellowed patina that brings out the vintage vibe.

Featuring scalloped Adirondack spruce bracing, the OG provides excellent resonance and tonal depth. The Indian rosewood fingerboard and bar bridge contribute to the guitar’s rich sustain and crisp articulation. Whether you’re playing in standard or open tunings, this guitar offers generous headroom and projection, making it a versatile choice for a range of musical styles. The OG 'Relic Natural' is a true work of art, combining vintage aesthetics and modern craftsmanship.
