Vibrantly hued cocobolo makes an exotic guest appearance on this 900 Series limited edition Grand Auditorium. Instead of the Advanced Performance bracing scheme typically used with our rosewood 900 Series, we opted for Performance bracing to better complement cocobolo’s musical properties. The voicing architecture brings out extra warmth and tempers the wood’s ringing top end tendencies to create a balanced voice with an articulate response. Aesthetically, we’ve embellished the detail-rich 900 Series appointment package with an amber-brown shaded edgeburst finish treatment around the body and neck. The color gradation adds subtle depth to the cocobolo’s glowing hues and creates a visual harmony between the darker sides and the lighter Sitka spruce top. It also intensifies the rich sparkle of the abalone edge trim. Visually and tonally, this guitar exudes refined beauty Learn More

2017 Santa Cruz H13. What’s up with thirteen frets? The historical precedent for this classic shape was the Gibson ‘Nick Lucas Special’ from the 1920’s and ’30’s, the one Bob Dylan holds in early photos. The “H” designation is an acknowledgment to the guardian of the lore of all things vintage and stringed, Maestro Paul Hostetter, who commissioned SCGC to build the prototype in 1978. In spite of the question of whether the historic 13 frets to the body had any basis in acoustic science, our reason for using it does. SCGC’s concept for the H-13 is to achieve power beyond what would be expected in a small-bodied guitar. Two fundamental lutherie tricks make this possible: a longer string length (more downward pressure at the saddle) and more air space via a deeper body (increased volume and bass response). To place the bridge in the optimal position for power and maintain the longer string length, the neck needs to join the body at the 13th fret. Cool, huh? This is a gorgeous classic with power and presence expected from a much larger instrument. Perfect for aggressive fingerstyle blues and vocal accompaniment, the H-13 feels really sweet to hold.

This custom 12-Fret was ordered by us at our last visit to the Taylor factory. The Cocobolo back and sides and Sinker Redwood top were hand picked by me for color and grain pattern. The Sinker is not only gorgeous, but it was one of the lighter pieces making it the perfect choice for the 12-Fret body Learn More
