Novo Guitars Announces ​IDRIS Model

Novo Guitars Announces ​IDRIS Model

The IDRIS was designed to be a slightly unconventional twist on a classic electric guitar design and features Fralin pickups and a tempered pine body.


Featuring Novo’s signature textured tempered pine body finished in super-thin nitrocellulose lacquer, the IDRIS produces classic single coil tones with a warm, pronounced midrange and sparkling top end. Thanks to its medium 'C' tempered maple neck, 9.5"-14" compound fingerboard radius, and 25.5" scale length, it offers a refined, yet familiar playing experience.

"I am excited to finally unveil the IDRIS to the public," says Novo Guitars founder Dennis Fano.“I believe it has something to offer every guitarist and I can't wait for players to get their hands on them and experience the IDRIS for themselves.”
