This show-stopping 2019 OM from Santa Cruz Guitars is an absolute masterclass in detailed craftsmanship, superb feel, and distinctive, inspired tonality. This OM sports a breathtaking 3,000 year old ancient Sitka spruce top, appropriately paired with "The Tree" mahogany back and sides. Needless to say, this guitar would be an outstanding addition to anyone's collection looking for guitars made with extremely rare tonewoods!
More than just visually mesmerizing, though, the sonic character of this guitar is detailed, rich and sure to move both player and listener. Inherently balanced with excellent note separation, this OM has a strong and controlled bass response matched by well-defined trebles and a distinctly vintage feel to the midrange. The overall blend brings together the best of classic and contemporary tones and works wonders for fingerstyle and flatpicked approaches alike. The playability is everything we so consistently adore from Richard Hoover and his team, with an exceedingly comfortable profile and crystal clear separation all the way through to to upper registers of the board, making for an effortless and engaging playing experience.
This guitar is in excellent condition and comes with its original hardshell case.
