The first Iris Jumbo, the ND-200 is named after one of our own luthiers, Nick Durkee. He was the first builder hired at Iris and deserves the biggest and baddest guitar named after him.
The ND-200 features a 25.5” scale and the large body size allows for ample air movement within the instrument, enhancing its volume and projection. In addition to its powerful bass, the ND-200 produces clear and pronounced mid-range tone, ideal for both rhythmic strumming and intricate fingerpicking. This combination of deep lows and clear highs make the ND-200 a versatile choice for many musical genres, including folk, country, blues and rock, where its robust sound can easily fill a room.
