Preowned Santa Cruz Style 1. An absolute stunning guitar! It's in excellent condition with no dings or scratches. Includes the original hardshell case!

The Santa Cruz Style 1 is a guitar that embodies understated elegance and pure tonal beauty. Inspired by early 20th-century parlor instruments, it balances refinement with the intimacy of a small-bodied design. Its silhouette is graceful and compact, with soft curves and proportions that invite close playing—perfect for fingerstyle, blues, folk, or light flatpicking.

Crafted with Santa Cruz’s renowned attention to detail, this Style 1 pairs a Englemann spruce top with rosewood back and sides, yielding a voice that is both articulate and resonant. Notes bloom with a shimmering clarity, yet there’s a warmth and sweetness that lingers, making it ideal for players who value nuance and touch sensitivity. The shorter scale length and smaller body contribute to a comfortable feel, while the guitar’s responsiveness makes even the lightest dynamics come alive.

Visually, the Style 1 reflects Santa Cruz’s philosophy of tasteful restraint. Clean lines, fine purfling, and a minimalist rosette highlight the natural beauty of the tonewoods rather than ornate decoration. Each instrument feels timeless—classic without being flashy, elegant without being ostentatious.

Altogether, the Santa Cruz Style 1 is not just a nod to tradition but a masterful reimagining of the parlor guitar, offering players an intimate instrument with a voice far larger than its size suggests.
