This 2024 Santa Cruz 1934 D is built with Master Grade old-growth Adirondack spruce and mahogany sourced from the 1930s, pairing period-inspired materials with Santa Cruz's meticulous approach to construction. The large 4 1/2" soundhole, Adirondack advanced X-scalloped bracing, and hot hide glue assembly draw from prewar dreadnought design cues that continue to influence acoustic guitar building today. A thin nitrocellulose finish allows the aged tonewoods to remain the focal point, while the ebony peghead overlay and pearl logo provide understated visual detail. The combination of old-growth Adirondack spruce and mahogany delivers the strong fundamental response and headroom often sought in prewar-style instruments. Bone nut and saddle appointments complete the package, keeping the build rooted in traditional materials throughout. As a modern interpretation of an increasingly revered era of American flattop design, the 1934 D offers a compelling look at what can be achieved when exceptional wood and time-tested construction methods come together. Includes custom Ameritage hard shell case.
