Vintage 63/66 Strat in for Plek processing 😍 #60sstratocaster #vintageguitar #getplekd
Portland based jazz guitarist eric.skye.guitar visited the SCGC shop to retrieve his trusty #2 - the second OO signature model customized personally for Eric and which has become a best selling model since its introduction. #2 was at the mothership for a refret and #plek treatment for the most precise setup available. Here he is with a rousing rendition of "Blue Monk" from the jazz legend Thelonious Monk.
Eric was named by 20th Century Guitar Magazine as “one of the best rising stars of the American acoustic jazz scene.” This hardworking instrumentalist has gained a loyal following both as a dramatic and expressive live performer and an in-demand acoustic guitar instructor both in Oregon and in the online music community.
He has been featured in magazines such as Acoustic Guitar, Guitar Player, Jazziz and Jazz Improv, and his music can be heard on NPR. To match his distinct personality and playing style, Eric and Richard collectively dreamed up a gorgeous Cocobolo OO with an Adirondack top, unique 24.9 inch scale length for ease of playability, slightly deeper body for added bass and volume, hot hide glue with Adirondack Spruce, scalloped bracing and a distinctive herringbone purfling and ivoroid rosette. This instrument is designed for the excruciatingly accurate and sophisticated techniques of the most demanding jazz fingerstylist.

janisianofficial is a powerhouse performer on the guitar. When you see this iconic singer/songwriter live you’ll see how SCGC met the challenge of making this unique instrument for her dynamic attack. Personifying the inspiration for a Santa Cruz Signature Model, she delivers a singular playing style defined from years of professional experience. To make Janis Ian’s dream guitar, we employed our substantial luthiers body of knowledge to custom voice an instrument with electric guitar playability, state of the art electro-acoustics in collaboration with L.R.Baggs and an attention getting stage presence.
An old growth, responsibly harvested Mahogany cutaway body, hand voiced Spruce top and Janis’ signature “Rude Girl” logo fretboard inlays make a striking presentation. This parlor-sized cutaway with a very contemporary look is a professionally proven stage and studio instrument. The JI model inspired Ani DiFranco to exclaim to Janis, “#@*%#*#**! What kind of guitar is that?” This instrument was shipped internationally to dolphinguitars in Suita, Osaka, Japan. Reach out to Yusuke with any questions!

The B/PW bradpaisley signature model story begins with Paisley’s acoustic guitar mastery and his well-deserved super star status. His decision to partner with a shop as small as Santa Cruz Guitar Company came from his desire to be associated with quality and responsibility above all else. He wanted his name on a handmade instrument that his fans and guitar aficionados alike could trust. Richard Hoover worked closely with Paisley to design a personalized, custom dreadnought based on SCGC’s Pre-War Dreadnought Model.
The Paisley signature model (The B/PW) honors Paisley’s dedication to the sustainability of treasured tone woods, built with his preferred customizations for playability, tone and look in mind. Featuring Indian Rosewood sides/back, Bear Claw German Spruce top, 1-3/4" nut width, 2-3/16” bridge spacing, scalloped Adirondack Advanced-X bracing, herringbone top border, ivoroid body binding, black fingerboard binding, unbound solid square peghead with a custom Cowboy hat inlay, SCGC fingerboard inlay at the 5th fret, tinted top. Setup with our SCGC Parabolic Mid Tension strings. Just shipped internationally to guitarrepairs in Gams, Switzerland! Reach out to Urs with any questions.

This sweet Gibson Custom Les Paul R9 has just been refretted with Jescar 57110 Stainless Steel frets. We corrected some humps in the fingerboard with the PLEK before installing the new frets and fitted a new bone nut, also cut on the PLEK. Plays like a dream.

Made a little more progress on the EVH GL2T replica build this week. The faceplate is basically done at this point. The real Steinberger bodies were a lot more hollow inside but I think I’m going to leave a bit of wood up around where the neck tenon is set in for structural integrity. I’m starting to think I should have just done it as a neck-thru build, and I may end up needing to redesign this thing in the future. But for now I’m gonna roll with it! Next up is fret slots and board radiusing!
