Iris Guitar Company RCM-000 Model All Mahogany Acoustic Guitar w/ Slotted Headstock, Natural
The Iris Guitar Company’s RCM-000 is a distinctive guitar that showcases the brand’s commitment to superior design and craftsmanship. This model features a 12-fret construction, which serves a critical function beyond just an aesthetic appeal or playability. By aligning the bridge position lower on the body, away from the soundhole, it is placed on a less rigid part of the top. This arrangement leverages the guitar’s physics, leading to enhanced resonance and vibration, resulting in a fuller, richer sound with more volume.Â
Constructed entirely from Mahogany, the RCM-000 provides a warm, mellow tone that is perfectly balanced. The scalloped Adirondack Spruce bracing further aids the sound projection, delivering a punch that belies its slim body. The Mahogany neck paired with an Indian Rosewood fingerboard ensures comfortable playability.Â
The RCM-000 also sports a slotted peghead, a traditional feature that is not only visually striking but also adds to the guitar’s sound quality. The slot design increases the angle of the strings over the nut, leading to better sustain. The Golden Age Relic Brass tuners, nestled snugly in the slotted peghead, lend a vintage charm while providing excellent tuning stability.Â
The finish is a natural satin Nitrocellulose in an open pore style, showcasing the Mahogany’s gorgeous grain while contributing to the instrument’s overall resonance. The addition of a tortoise pickguard and matching tortoise binding rounds out the RCM-000’s timeless design. Delivered in a hardshell TKL case, this model embodies Iris Guitar Company’s dedication to quality and detail. Named after their General Manager, Christian McAdams, the RCM-000 is a testament to Iris’s ongoing quest for excellence.Â
