The Santa Cruz Tony Rice Signature Model is more than a tribute to one of acoustic music’s most influential players, it’s a guitar built around a lifetime of musical exploration. Developed through decades of collaboration between Tony Rice and Santa Cruz founder Richard Hoover, this instrument reflects a deep understanding of what serious flatpickers demand from a guitar. Every note feels purposeful, every chord rings with authority, and every detail serves the pursuit of exceptional acoustic tone.
What sets the Tony Rice Model apart is its remarkable balance of power and clarity. It delivers the strong bass response that dreadnought players love, but with a focused, controlled low end that never overwhelms the rest of the guitar’s voice. The mids and trebles are rich, articulate, and incredibly responsive, allowing lead lines to cut through with effortless definition. Fast runs remain clean and distinct, while open chords bloom with depth and complexity, making this a favorite for bluegrass, Americana, and beyond.
Crafted with master-grade Indian rosewood and old-growth Sitka spruce, the Tony Rice Signature Model has the kind of mature, sophisticated voice that inspires players to keep digging deeper into their music. Whether you’re chasing the nuances of traditional flatpicking or simply looking for a world-class acoustic with remarkable projection and character, this guitar delivers an unforgettable playing experience. Available now at Haggerty’s Music.
