The 1929-00 is probably my favorite Santa Cruz guitar ... small bodied and comfortable on the couch, lighter than a feather, simple elegant aesthetics and a warm mahogany voice. Here's a rare opportunity to get yours.
A few years ago, Santa Cruz changed its business model to all custom guitar builds, an innovative strategy that allowed the buyer to choose a model then customize woods, finishes, inlays, tuners, etc. to their heart's content, at a single price. Including everything at one price meant, naturally, a higher price. For their 50th anniversary, Santa Cruz has "reissued" some of their favorite guitars in their original specifications, at a very attractive price and substantial savings.
Welcomed internationally as both timely and timeless, the 1929-00 has received sparkling reviews from the most prestigious publications in France, Germany, UK and the US. This instrument’s design pays homage to the simple and elegant instruments made for players enduring the Great Depression of 1929. Vintage inspired appointments include scalloped bracing, a period correct script style logo done tastefully in Ivoroid and beautifully executed Ebony pyramid bridge, bridge pins, tuner buttons, head-plate and fretboard. The rosette is an exercise in austere elegance with a rich tortoise ring nestled in a vintage ivoroid border. Ameritage case. Condition: New; Top: Mahogany; Back and sides: Mahogany; Neck: Mahogany,ebony fingerboard,; Nut: 1 3/4; Width: 14.375; Depth: 4; Scale: 24.75; Binding: Mahogany; Purfling: Black single line; Rosette: Ivoroid/tortoise/ivoroid; Orientation: Lefthanded (of course) -
The Limited Edition '60 Telecaster Journeyman in Sage Green Metallic, a gem from the Fender Custom Shop, encapsulates the grandeur of Fender's history. This model is reminiscent of the early '60s when the Telecaster secured its place across numerous musical styles. The Journeyman series, renowned for its moderate relic appearance, offers an antique allure without an excessively aged look. This '60 Telecaster is constructed with a 2-piece alder body, a favored tonewood for its balanced sound spectrum. The neck, crafted from quarter-sawn AA flamed maple, adopts a '60 Style Oval "C" profile, offering a versatile grip for an array of play styles. The AAA rosewood fingerboard, featuring a slab board flat lam construction and 9.50" radius, is graced with 6105 narrow tall frets and white micarta dot inlays. The guitar houses hand-wound '58 Tele pickups at the bridge and neck, relic-ed to mirror the vintage theme. These pickups emulate the classic Tele twang, rich in vintage warmth. A trio of controls, including a 3-way selector, master volume, and master tone, allows a broad tonal palette. The body sports a Sage Green Metallic finish in nitro lacquer, subjected to the Custom Shop's Journeyman Relic process. This finish imparts a gently aged aesthetic, akin to a guitar that's graced countless stages yet remained well-tended. The Journeyman treatment features lacquer checking with minor nicks and dings. The neck lacquer, tinted medium, bears a heavy relic treatment on the back, enhancing the vintage appeal and playability. The Fender Custom Shop Limited Edition '60 Telecaster Journeyman in Sage Green Metallic pays homage to a defining epoch in Fender's history. It's a revived slice of the past, meticulously crafted with the precision and detail synonymous with the Custom Shop.

Here is a brand new Collings 470 JL Julian Lage signature model, in a lightly aged antiqued sunburst finish. The guitar is a true hollowbody with trestle block construction, with a thin nitrocellulose lacquer hand-rubbed to a gently worn patina (no dings or dents). Pickups are Ron Ellis Ellisonic, and a Bigsby vibrato completes the vintage vibe. Marvelous instrument. Collings sez: "The success of the Collings OM1 JL combined with Julian Lage’s love of electric guitars meant a second Collings-Julian collaboration was inevitable. But following such a highly praised signature model with yet another meant leaving nothing on the table. From its organic beginnings, the process envisioned by both parties was something designed and built from the sound up. The Collings 470 JL is the result of years-long conversations, engineering, testing, tweaking, playing, and listening. And then doing it all over again until it was right. From first sketches through plugging in the final prototypes, every aspect of this model inside and out is the result of a unique approach, technique, and style - both from the builder’s and player’s point of view - culminating in a one-of-a-kind electric guitar experience. In collaboration with our friend Julian Lage, we proudly present the Collings 470 JL." Terrific guitar. Ameritage style hardshell case.

Serial #36596 Condition: New; Top: Sitka spruce; Back and sides: Honduran mahogany; Neck: Mahogany, custom carve, ebony fingerboard; Nut: 1 11/16; Width: 15; Depth: 4 1/8; Scale: 25 1/2; Binding: Ivoroid with herringbone; Rosette: b/w/b; Orientation: Lefthanded (of course)Here's a new Collings OM1 T Julian Lage signature model, hide glue, ebony bridge and fingerboard, bone saddle, relic Waverly tunes with vintage buttons. These guitars are so good. I'll let Collings describe it: "When Bill Collings first met the brilliant young jazz musician Julian Lage, in 2014, the two began a series of in-depth conversations about their respective crafts. Lage's profound insights as a guitarist would play a key role in the creation of Collings’ T (Traditional) Series guitars. This rare collaboration, which continued right up until Bill’s passing, in July, 2017, has yielded another exceptional new guitar with an old soul. We are proud to present a highly personal extension of the T Series: the Julian Lage Signature OM1. Though Lage’s guitar shares the same foundational specs as the OM1 T, it is unique in some key ways. Its neck feels like no other Collings guitar. That’s because it’s modeled after Lage’s cherished 1939 Martin 000-18. This pre-war gem is heard on the guitarist’s 2015 solo album, “World’s Fair,” and was his main touring acoustic for years. The 000-18’s neck—which was of course originally hand-shaped and sanded—has a distinctive taper altered by decades of wear. For Lage, this particular neck had come to feel like home. Through careful analysis and digitization of its unique dimensions, we were able to precisely recreate its worn-in, asymmetric feel on his signature model. We extended the fretboard from the original short scale to our standard 25 ½" length for slightly greater presence and note definition.Lage has an affinity both tonally and aesthetically for vintage guitars whose finishes have mellowed after years of playing. To recreate this effect we initially considered a varnish, but to achieve the ideal combination of a thin finish application and a vintage aesthetic, we landed on a custom satin lacquer. This new finish offering not only feels and looks right to Lage, he finds it has the same inherent openness of tone that is present in the best pre-war instruments. With his typical descriptive eloquence, Lage characterizes his signature model as a “lovingly neutral” guitar. It has a remarkably even response between registers. It’s not an empty flatterer, but an instrument that rewards you when you’re playing your best. In this way, Lage, whose own education is unending, sees the guitar as a teacher. Lage’s signature model incorporates a script peghead logo not seen on a new Collings instrument in decades. This is the inlay that Bill hand-cut some 30 years ago when he started out in a tiny shop in Austin, Texas. We see this as a loving tribute to our late leader, who in his final project was able to realize the perfect new steel-string for one of today’s most exacting guitarists."

Here's a rare 2017 Gibson Limited Edition Big Sky Blue Hummingbird.
