Sold2011 Santa Cruz Vintage Artist
Fashioned after Doc Watson’s prototype, this guitar sounds and plays just great with a loud rich Mahogany tone and nice low action. The guitar is in excellent condition but we are rating and pricing it as in “very good” condition as the Sitka spruce top had a center seam repair performed by Santa Cruz Guitars, but without full lacquer work, so it is still a little visible cosmetically if you're looking for it, but it is completely structurally sound. Otherwise, the guitar is as clean as whistle and has a great overall appearance. But it really the feel and tonal characteristic of this guitar that makes it outstanding. It is gig ready with a K&K Pure Mini pickup. It comes with its original hard shell case.
Sold2016 Santa Cruz OMG Italian Spruce Indian Rosewood
It is not often that we have an East Indian Rosewood OMG (Orchestra Model Grand) come through our doors and one in such excellent condition as this. If you have never tried an OMG before, it is like an OM but a little bigger so it has more growl, more punch more boom. One might think after playing it that the OMG stands for "Oh My ..." It is that good. Premium East Indian Rosewood back and sides gives this instrument excellent balance between bass, mids and treble. Having an Italian spruce top, this instrument has extra sparkle in the high-end and a crisp clarity that makes this guitar shimmer. All of this is accentuated by the slightly larger size of this guitar giving it presence and authority with every strum and melody. Little to no fret-wear. Light wear on the pick-guard. No dings nor dents on the guitar itself. We will miss this one when it is gone!
