Santa Cruz Fingerstyle Custom - Moon Spruce & Cocobolo

Description The Santa Cruz Fingerstyle Custom built with Moon Spruce and Cocobolo is a refined, deeply responsive instrument created for players who demand nuance, balance, and expressive power. The Moon Spruce top is exceptionally light and resonant, prized for its ability to deliver a wide dynamic range with immediate response to a delicate touch. Paired with Adirondack spruce braces assembled using hot hide glue, the top moves freely and efficiently, producing remarkable clarity, projection, and long-term tonal maturity. This construction gives the guitar a fast, alive feel that fingerstyle players instantly connect with. Cocobolo back and sides bring richness and authority to the voice, adding deep piano-like bass, complex overtones, and a shimmering high end that complements the Moon Spruce beautifully. Visually, the Cocobolo is equally stunning, extending to the headstock overlay and accented by a thin black backstrip, thin black strip tail wedge, and a tasteful tortoise heelcap. Tortoise body binding and black fingerboard binding frame the instrument with classic elegance, while the FS Blue purfle combo top border and matching FS Blue rosette add a subtle, distinctive touch that feels both modern and unmistakably Santa Cruz. Playability is at the heart of this Fingerstyle Custom. The 25.375" scale length provides excellent string tension and articulation, while the wider 1 13/16" nut width and generous 2 3/16" bridge spacing give the right hand plenty of room for complex fingerstyle techniques. An ebony fingerboard and bridge contribute to the guitar’s focused attack and smooth feel, enhanced by white fingerboard side dots for clean visual reference. The solid FS headstock is adorned with the classic SCGC headstock inlay, completing the instrument’s refined aesthetic. Every detail is finished to the highest standard, with a fully buffed top, back, sides, and neck that feel luxurious in the hands and allow the woods to resonate freely. Gold Gotoh 510 tuning machines provide precise, stable tuning, matching the guitar’s premium appointments. The instrument ships in a high-quality hard case, ensuring it is protected wherever it travels. This Santa Cruz Fingerstyle Custom is a masterfully balanced guitar—responsive, elegant, and deeply musical—built to inspire serious players for a lifetime.
