TONY RICE

Tony Rice is a master of contemporary bluegrass guitar. Tony's legendary 1930s D-28, previously owned by Clarence White, served as the model for an instrument design that combines the bass presence of the old D-28 with more substantial midrange and treble response, which is necessary for Tony's modern lead work. The sophisticated tone in the higher ranges of this guitar will inspire flatpickers to explore new territory. This guitar is truly beautiful and features a tone like no other. Spruce and Rosewood heaven!

Model H

Most players are astonished when they play the H model for the first time. Its volume is startling for a small-bodied guitar. The body's depth allows for a much larger presence than would be expected in an instrument of this size, and the guitar's even balance gives the H a precise response. This model is highly recommended for those who prefer the sweetness of a small guitar but also need more volume. The Model H can optionally be built as a thin-body cutaway, a configuration that makes the guitar an even more exceptional recording instrument.

Santa Cruz 000. 

The OOO is similar to the OM in size and tone, but has several distinguishing features that provide it with a more vintage styling. The primary differences are that the OOO has 12 frets and a slotted headstock. A favorite instrument of fingerstyle players, the OOO has a slightly smoother, more bass-resonant tone than the OM. The guitar's vintage features include SCGC tuners, modern string spacing at the bridge, and a slim "V"-shape neck profile. this is the first we have seen and we love it!

SANTA CRUZ OM

This is the best OM in the biz! This Orchestra Model is a small-body guitar with a very powerful sound. The balance of the OM favors the bass to midrange, inviting comparison to a small dreadnought. The OM has become a favorite of fingerstylists and players preferring the comfort of a smaller body that delivers considerable power. This model is our most versatile and popular guitar.

santacruz_VJ_burst.jpg

 

Santa Cruz VJ

The VJ's Sitka Spruce top is braced and voiced for volume and the body is built with premium Mahogany for clarity of tone. The balance favors the bass to the degree found in the originals, not to the excess found in many from the golden era of the square-shouldered brand. What this really pretty face has over its predecessors is SCGC's hallmark complexity of overtones, sustain and power. Look your best. Wear this guitar!

The Vintage Jumbo is the ideal Blues guitar. Inspired by the classic round-shouldered dreadnoughts of the 1940's, we infused it with the characteristic Santa Cruz volume, balance and complexity to create a guitar that can cover a lot of different styles. The VJ is dripping with the kind of deep, rich bass and sweet trebles that really shine in chord-oriented work. You won't find this one coming up short when you call on it for more!

RS.jpg

Santa Cruz RS Model. This is the Roy Smeck slope shoulder

The new SCGC RS model is another modern interpretation of a vintage Gibson jumbo. We have had great successes with our previous "Slope Shoulder Classic" inspired instruments. For these slope shoulder jumbos we choose perfectly quarter sawn, narrow, stiff, spruce brace stock, and then we double taper it. The first taper extends out beyond the bridge plate and then the second taper drops to the linings. This heavily knifed bracing style is something unique to Santa Cruz that we developed exclusively to create the woody, dry, explosive tone that the old Gibsons were prized for. It creates a light low mass brace, while not losing the snap and explosiveness that can be the result of a scalloped bracing design.

VS.jpg

 Santa Cruz VS Model.

The Vintage Southerner is our short scale (24 3/4") slope shoulder dreadnought offering. It is the sound sought after for Texas fiddle style backup. It has also been a huge hit with Blues players and anyone in love with the old short scale Gibson dreadnoughts. This includes fingerstyle blues players and singer/songwriters, backup rhythm players, oldtime players and many more. If you have been impressed by some of the old vintage short- scale slope shoulders of the past such as a Southern Jumbo or J-45, you'll be blown away by this guitar.
