Pure power and tone!  Such a great fundamental sound, super responsive, plays like butter, what else would you want?  Oh, a gorgeous sunburst?  Yeah, it’s got that too! 

The Dreadnought Model: A Bluegrass staple!  It’s quite rare that a bluegrass musician plays anything outside of a dreadnought.  This is due to the full and bold tone, with great bass response, string midrange, and crisp trebles. It makes it fit in the mix perfectly.  But it’s not only good for bluegrass, as can be seen in popular music for nearly the past 100 years.  

The Santa Cruz D Model has a unique tapered bracing, voiced to enhance the midrange and treble without compromising the bass volume. This voicing gives the D Model a more even balance and a greater versatility than traditionally braced dreadnoughts. The Santa Cruz Guitar Company Dreadnought Model was carefully conceived to accommodate the modern player’s need for sophisticated balance with more substance in midrange and treble. To deliver these qualities in the acceptable dreadnought-sized body required a very non-traditional approach, as compared to the factory offerings of the day. Using time honored lutherie skills, SCGC created a Trojan Horse – familiar on the outside, dangerous on the inside. SCGC’s innovative D Model remains a mainstay of artists who require acoustic volume without compromising the quality of higher frequencies.
