What Richard Hoover has done at Santa Cruz Guitars over the last 50 years has truly shown what is possible when you combine immense talent, passion, and uncompromising quality. He set the bar for the perfect acoustic guitar and along the way, surrounded himself with the best people to round out his team.
Relic Music is beyond proud to be an official Santa Cruz dealer and offer a wide range of options of models, Tone wood combinations, and appointments.
This OM Grand is an excellent example of a daily driver acoustic being equally at home strumming, playing arpeggio, or finger-style. It, like every other Santa Cruz, becomes part of you; at the very least a symbiotic relationship between instrument and player. Truly putting out what you give it. It's dynamics, harmonic richness, is enviable among any other acoustic out there.
