1996 Santa Cruz 000-42 - European / Brazilian - SOLD
A superb and incredibly open 'holy grail' guitar. Sounds far bigger than its small size with incredible bass and warmth due to the 12 fret body and Brazilian rosewood. The lightest touch on the strings results in symphonic beauty, a fingerstylists dream.
Very little fret-wear, the saddle is at an ideal height and playability is perfect. Was sold by Gryphon Strings a couple years ago and here is their description: This looks very much like a new guitar with the exception of the finish crazing. It's been strung up and played of course, but carefully, and shows only a couple of the tiniest of dings and a few, very light lacquer crazing lines below the bridge. The Brazilian is clearly the premium, quartersawn variety, with fantastic grain and color, what SCGC now describes as "Tier 1" and assigns a whopping $14,500 upcharge (retail). The European spruce adds another $750, so the wood upgrades on this guitar alone would come to $15,250. Then there's $2300 for the pearl bordering and the fingerboard snowflakes, plus an upcharge for Sloane tuners, which are twice the price of Waverly gears….good grief the new list price of this guitar would be almost $23,000. Comes with a TKL Vintage Series case, as this was made long before Santa Cruz switched to Ameritage cases. Pictures here - https://photos.app.goo.gl/8M4jnkQo9F6xvw7MA AGF Price is $Shipped PP F&F. Will consider trades + sizeable cash contribution. Other specifications include: Body Wood Type Brazilian Rosewood 45 Style Backstrip 42 Style Body Inlays 12 Fret Top Wood Type German Spruce Rosette Abalone Bracing/Voicing Scalloped Peghead Slotted Peghead Binding Ivoroid Overlay Material Brazilian Headstock Inlay SCGC mini Width at Nut 1-13/16″ Neck Shape V Side Dots Black 42 Style Fingerboard Inlays Width at 14th Fret 2-3/16 Binding Ivoroid Scale Length 25.375 Finish Top Clear Back & Sides Clear/Buffed Neck Clear/Buffed Tuners/gears 3 on a plate Waverlys w/ Ivoroid Buttons Snowflakes on Bridge Feet Finish Checking In The Top Lacquer Dings on Headstock Light Finish Dings In Back, Top, and Sides K&K Pure Mini Hard Case #766 Pictures emphasize the finish crazing so that there are no surprises, it is more subtle in person. There are no cracks in the guitar whatsoever, just the cosmetic crazing in the finish and light dings from use. Will ship in US only. Last edited by tjvh27; 05-21-2019 at 05:39 AM. |
