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 1935 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.

Product Overview
The Santa Cruz Tony Rice signature model is not intended to be a copy of Tony's own 1935 Martin D-28 but rather a modern reinterpretation of the characteristics that make pre-war dreadnoughts so desirable for flatpicking. Clear note separation, articulate bass notes and strong highs and mids were goals in making the Tony Rice model. 

This model was designed with help from Tony Rice himself, featuring a Sitka Spruce top and Indian Rosewood back and sides. 

*Not to be confused with the Tony Rice Professional model, which uses a German Spruce top and Brazilian Rosewood back and sides and thus has nearly twice the street value.
