Design Your Own Santa Cruz Guitar

Santa Cruz Guitar Company is a true custom shop.

Every one of our models comes with a long list of available options that can be modified on the guitar for no extra cost. This includes upgraded tonewoods, Adirondack bracing with hot hide glue, neck modifications, bindings, appointments, sunbursts, inlays and more, allowing us to build for each individual customer, and deliver their required tonal qualities, playability needs and personal aesthetics.

In addition to all these options included with each model, we also offer pages of more complex customizations – exotic tonewoods, advanced body variations, inlays, bindings, and more  – that can be added to most models for an upcharge.

We invite you to design your own Santa Cruz guitar, starting with your chosen base model, and adding all your desired options. The ‘standard’ specifications for each model can be found on the model’s page and if custom option is chosen, that is what the specification will default to. Once you complete your design, an Email of the design details, along with an estimate retail price, will be sent directly to yourself and our shop, so you can have a record, and we can make ourselves available for any questions. We are also happy to introduce you to your local SCGC dealer, if requested.

Please reference our Custom Options Photo Gallery to see everything available to you, as well as our Just Shipped page to be inspired by recently completed guitars. You are also welcome to contact us at any time for questions or assistance with your personal build.

We thank you for your support of traditional lutherie, and your interest in our small, custom shop.
