Condition: Used, Very Good

Another terrific example of a classic model from Santa Cruz.  We were thrilled to see how exceptionally clean the guitar is and, after a painless brush up on the fretwork and setup from our luthier, the instrument is ready to get back to making music!  Rich, balanced mids, sweet highs, and a taut, authoritative bass are at your disposal along with Mr. Rice's preferred slim neck profile.

SP Luthier Notes: Fret dress and setup

Tony Rice is the master of contemporary bluegrass guitar. He has enhanced his traditional background with influences ranging from Clarence White to John Coltrane, thereby creating a style that demands more from a guitar than a typical vintage dreadnought can offer. Tony's legendary 1930s D-28, previously owned by Clarence White, served as the model for an instrument design that combines the bass presence of the old D-28 with more substantial midrange and treble response, which is necessary for Tony's modern lead work. The sophisticated tone in the higher ranges of this guitar will inspire flatpickers to explore new territory. The Tony Rice Model is the result of a 12-year collaboration with Tony Rice, and is the epitome of a contemporary bluegrass guitar.
