Like new, and wide awake. Ready for a 2020 Santa Cruz OM that sings like it’s been crooning for decades? Look no further: this Quilted Sapele and German Spruce number is the winner you’ve been looking for. We love the defined and powerful bass response—which happily pairs up with a meaty midrange and crisp trebles—and the fact that this one is essentially a brand new guitar (without the brand new price tag) makes it especially appealing. It’s a lightweight powerhouse at just under four pounds, slinky setup, and satin-finished neck. The voice strikes the fine balance between raw power and refined definition.

As a person who plays more acoustic guitar than most others on the planet, I’m here to tell you that the Santa Cruz guitars at the last few years are only getting better. This one is extremely alive sounding, even though it’s in like new condition. The Sapele is three dimensional and gorgeous. I can’t recommend this guitar enough. | Scale Length | 25.4 in |
