Santa Cruz Guitars
| Richard Hoover began building guitars and carved-top mandolins in 1972. By 1976 his focus was on the steel string guitars. Richard's leadership style of allowing his apprentices to interpret his vision has helped propel Santa Cruz Guitar Company to the forefront of guitar making. Each craftsman performs his/her specialty and also reviews the work of others who have completed stages before. Over half of the instruments built at Santa Cruz Guitars are custom orders. By limiting the number of instruments built, they practice the old-fashioned style of Lutherie born of a genuine love of the guitar. |
