Default SOLD: (Price drop) $5250 Santa Cruz MINT koa Firefly

Guitar is now sold...

This is a Santa Cruz Firefly koa guitar, a wonderful instrument with gorgeous flamed curly koa, and a wonderful voice to match. I purchased it in June of 2019, but found that I simply could not get used to playing a guitar that did not have a cutaway.

It is in mint condition, but I did have the original silver mini Gotoh tuners swapped out by a luthier for the exact same tuner in antique gold, as I prefer gold tuners on my instruments. The original tuners are included though if you would prefer to swap them back, as is the case candy and some of the Santa Cruz polish.

The case is a hearty Santa Cruz Ameritage model, with incredible padding that fits like a glove. The only downside is it is extremely heavy. So in order to better travel with it, I bought a guitar saddle backpack that allows you to utilize backpack straps. This is included in the sale as well. There are a couple of markings on the Ameritage case, but the guitar itself is in fantastic condition.

Note: the stand shown in the photos is not included in the sale. There is a new one for sale on Reverb for over $10k, donʻt miss this chance to get an amazing deal on this beauty. I am asking $5250 shipped for it, no trades please.
