Description

Meet the Iris Guitar Company CH Model in Natural, an acoustic marvel that packs a punch in a compact form. Reflecting the distinctive shape of Circle Strings tenor guitars, this model was co-envisioned by Cory Hollenhorst and offers an unexpected mix of volume and projection from its modest silhouette. 

Crafted with a Redwood top, it exudes warmth and dynamic responsiveness, making it an ideal palette for musicians to draw from. The Mahogany back and sides introduce a tinge of brightness, presenting a well-rounded tonality that beautifully complements the Redwood. Showcased in an open pore, natural satin Nitrocellulose finish, the raw elegance of the wood steals the spotlight. 

For the tactile elements, the Mahogany neck and Indian Rosewood fingerboard guarantee a comfortable, swift-playing experience. Despite its smaller, tenor-like form factor, the CH Model amazes with its robust sound. Thanks to the smart positioning of the bridge in the center of the lower bout, the bass response and overall volume are remarkably amplified. 

The guitar is further adorned with Golden Age Relic Brass Tuners, offering not just precise tuning, but also a classic aesthetic appeal. The Tortoise pickguard and binding, in contrast to the natural finish, add a tasteful touch of elegance. Accompanied by a hardshell TKL case, this guitar is prepared for any musical journey. 
 
The Iris Guitar Company CH Model – small in size, mighty in resonance.
