Santa Cruz Guitar Company
Santa Cruz Guitar Company has built guitars in Santa Cruz, California since 1976, when Richard Hoover founded the shop to bring violin-lutherie traditions into acoustic guitar building. Each top is tap-tuned and voiced by hand in a strictly climate-controlled workshop. Its connection with Tony Rice — the Tony Rice Model evokes the pre-war Martin D-28 voice he was known for — anchored its reputation in bluegrass flatpicking, and over five decades the catalog has grown into a deep custom-shop operation where most builds are individually specified rather than spec-built.
Miami Vintage Guitars
A shop run by players, trading since 2007 and organised into rooms rather than aisles — vintage, archtop and jazz, electric, and one given over to Jerry Garcia. The vintage and electric side is what Miami knows them for, and it won them the New Times' best-instrument-shop nod in 2014. The acoustic room is quieter and more particular than the name suggests: a standing Santa Cruz bench, Huss & Dalton alongside it, and older boutique pieces that surface and move on.
