Santa Cruz VA Vintage Artist 1995
In 1991 ging Richard Hoover de samenwerking aan met vintage experts om zo de meest gewilde eigenschappen van verschillende iconische Pre-War D-18's te bepalen. Het prototype van de Vintage Artist was in handen van gitarist Doc Watson, en hij noemde de gitaar de Dreadnought waarnaar hij al zijn hele leven zocht.
Santa Cruz presenteerde dit gitaarmodel als gelijk qua klank, maar technisch superieur aan de meest gerespecteerde Pre-War gitaren. Deze Vintage Artist beschikt over een Indisch palissander klankkast en Duits sparren bovenblad met scalloped X-bracing. De mahonie hals heeft een ebben toets en is net als de body voorzien van een ivoroid binding.
In de loop der jaren heeft deze Santa Cruz Vintage Artist uit 1995 enkele reparaties ondergaan. Op het bovenblad is een gerepareerde center seam-crack zichtbaar, en de klankkast heeft aan de schouder aan de baszijde een reparatie ondergaan waarbij ook een gedeeltelijke overspray heeft plaatsgevonden.
De gitaar heeft daarnaast een neck reset en een refret ondergaan, en heeft op body en hals speelsporen en enkele dings. Tevens is het brugzadel vervangen en is de gitaar voorzien van een Schertler Lydia-pickup. De speelbaarheid en klank van de gitaar zijn echter dik in orde, en deze Santa Cruz heeft dan ook nog vele jaren speelplezier in zich! Wordt met TFOA paspoort geleverd in een koffer.

In 1991, Richard Hoover teamed up with vintage experts to determine the most sought-after features of several iconic Pre-War D-18s. The prototype of the Vintage Artist was in the hands of guitarist Doc Watson, who called it the Dreadnought he had been looking for all his life.
Santa Cruz presented this guitar model as the tonal equal and technical superior to the most revered Pre-War guitars. This Vintage Artist features a Indian rosewood back and sides and an German spruce top with scalloped X-bracing. The mahogany neck has an ebony fingerboard and, like the body, is provided with an ivoroid binding.
Over the years, this 1995 Santa Cruz Vintage Artist has undergone some repairs. A repaired center seam crack is visible on the top, and the body has undergone a repair at the shoulder on the bass side, including a partial overspray.
The guitar has also undergone a neck reset and a refret, and has playwear on the body and neck and some dings. The bridge saddle has also been replaced and the guitar is equipped with a Schertler Lydia pickup. However, the playability and sound of the guitar are perfectly fine, and this Santa Cruz has many years of playing pleasure in it! Comes with TFOA passport in a hardshell case.
