This is one of the few videos that has made me want to buy the demonstrated guitar. I hadn’t realized how versatile the small jumbo size is. With mahogany B/S and a 25” scale, this is no mere J-185 knockoff.
Excellent review. Perfect playing really brings out the complete tonal spectrum. Nicely done! I have one, with a K&K, coming this week. I have nine very nice acoustics, but I have a feeling that this one will become my "go-to"!
Oh man, I love what the Iris crew is doing! I was a week away from a deposit on their OG model back in 2020 before I stumbled upon a used Larrivee 000-50 traditional locally that I couldn’t pass up. Maybe one day I’ll snag an Iris…
Have to get accustomed to the headstock, but the guitar!!! Makes me believe the J-185 body shape much better suited to Sitka/Honduran over maple b&sides. By far. Beautifully balanced sound.
