Like a moonlit winter night in both looks and sound!  We chose a dark, somber appearance (even requesting some particular purple-ish/black-ish East Indian) for this endlessly expressive 14 fret Nick Lucas style and the fit couldn't be better.  Fingerpicked, the guitar sounds like something between the darkest, richest 00 you've ever heard and a Classical; with a pick, you get a tonal response that comes across as a tighter, punchier slope shoulder dread.  Just incredible!

Long an honored presence in the Santa Cruz collection, the 1930’s inspired H Model joined our catalog in 1977 during the formative years of the company. This was a challenging era to introduce a non-Dreadnought, non-12-fret guitar. Opting to be favored by natural selection, SCGC presented the now standard 14 frets to the body configuration to an audience that valued the additional 2-fret access on such a classic, vintage body.

Most players are astonished when they play the Santa Cruz H for the first time. Its volume is startling for a small-bodied guitar. The body’s depth allows for a much larger presence than would be expected in an instrument of its size. The guitar’s balanced hand voicing gives the H a precise response at every fretboard position. This model is highly recommended for those who prefer the sweetness and ease of playing a small guitar but require more comfort and volume.
