Santa Cruz Tony Rice Acoustic Guitar - Pre-owned with case

This incredible Santa Cruz Dreadnought is here on consignment. The owner of this guitar really doesn't HAVE to sell it, so we will be sticking to the asking price. He is merely "culling the herd" per his wife's orders. That being said, it is a fantastic sounding guitar in 9 out of 10 condition. Includes the original hardshell case.

The Tony Rice Signature Model represents over 30 years of collaboration between the world's foremost flatpicking icon and SCGC's founding luthier, Richard Hoover. Today's model incorporates decades of refinement in response to players' demands and the sophisticated evolution of the master's technique. Never intended to be a copy of Mr. Rice's iconic 1934 Martin D-28, the TR Model is voiced to showcase his stellar lead work with influences from Clarence White to John Coltrane. This guitar delivers exactly what the contemporary flatpicking artist needs: substantial treble and midrange for rapid single-line lead, clean note separation for definition and the traditional bass boom without the woofy bottom end of some of the venerable Pre-war dreadnoughts. Master grade Indian Rosewood and old Sitka Spruce give this instrument a professional presence at an attainable price.
