Santa Cruz 1934 OM Old Growth Mahogany 2021

This 1934 OM combines historical construction methods with top-quality vintage tonewoods, resulting in a guitar with a warm, rich tone that immediately captivates.

In 1934, Martin introduced the 14-fret OM body, a design that has since become one of the most beloved acoustic guitar formats. Santa Cruz honors this legacy with their 1934 OM, staying true to the classic proportions and construction methods that make this model so special.

For this limited series, Santa Cruz selected old growth mahogany and Adirondack spruce, tonewoods that were once standard but are now extremely rare. Old growth wood features a tighter grain due to slower growth, resulting in superior resonance and a tone that only improves with age.

The combination of old growth mahogany and Adirondack spruce produces a tone that is both warm and clear, with a beautiful balance across the registers. The mahogany body delivers a direct, dry sound with excellent definition, while the Adirondack top provides power and projection to every note.

This Santa Cruz from 2021 looks exceptionally clean and well cared for, with only light playwear. These marks are mainly visible on the top and pickguard, while a few superficial dings can be found on the back of the headstock. The guitar is in excellent condition and comes in a beautiful case with a TFOA passport.
