The JB is our interpretation of an OM style guitar with a modern original design. This extremely versatile guitar features the clarity and balance you’d expect in a smaller bodied instrument. Due to its proportions though, the JB has the ability to produce tone with exceptional vigor and volume. The slender depth and narrow waist married with a 16 inch lower bout provides fundamental low-end response, a clean mid-range, and rotund treble. 

The JB is aptly named after our equally versatile and reliable Plant Manager, Jason Brown. Jay has been instrumental in our growth and development as a guitar company since joining the team in 2021. There are many parallels between Jason Brown and the JB. Both are multifaceted and accommodating. They are genuine and dependable. And always warm and responsive!

Jay Brown, Iris Guitar Luthier and Plant Manager
