This Santa Cruz D Model Bearclaw Sitka Spruce/Mahogany is an incredible guitar from the masters at Santa Cruz. With over 4 decades of experience in crafting guitars of the highest quality, this Dreadnought hits the bullseye.

Sometimes there's no getting away from the classics, and in this case absolutely no need. With Santa Cruz' expert craftsmanship they can take the high quality combination of Sitka Spruce and Mahogany to create a truly wonderful, resonant guitar.

Crucial to the tone of this guitar is it's unique tapered bracing. Specifically voiced to enhance the midrange and treble while still maintaining wonderful bass tones. This bracing gives the D Model a huge amount of diversity and balance across the tonal spectrum.
