To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the company’s inception, Santa Cruz Guitar Co. is unveiling five custom variations of some of their most iconic models with a unique heel cap and an interior label signed by Richard Hoover himself.
Welcomed internationally as both timely and timeless, the 1929-OO has received sparkling reviews from the most prestigious publications in France, Germany, UK and the US. This instrument’s design pays homage to the simple and elegant instruments made for players enduring the Great Depression of 1929. Vintage inspired appointments include scalloped bracing, a period correct script style logo done tastefully in Ivoroid and beautifully executed Ebony pyramid bridge, bridge pins, tuner buttons, head-plate and fretboard. The rosette is an exercise in austere elegance with a rich tortoise ring nestled in a vintage Ivoroid border.
