Iris Guitars CH Model Sitka Spruce/Mahogany Parlor Acoustic Sunburst w/Hard Case

Named for Cory Hollenhorst, the customer who helped dream up this unique design, the CH model is based on the body shape of our Circle Strings tenor guitar.

Being a long 25.4" scale, the guitar has a surprising amount of volume and projection. The body design puts the bridge right in the center of the lower bout so the bass response is increased. “Believe us, when you play this guitar, you can feel it moving!" say the guys at Acoustic Music Works.

The aesthetics are relatively simple, keeping in the spirit of the Iris line.  Tortoise top binding with no back binding. Black/white/black single-line rosette and top purfling.  Tuners are Grover open-back.
