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.
Dream Guitars
Dream Guitars sits in Asheville, North Carolina, in what may be the most photographed shop in the boutique acoustic world. Their inventory runs deep across the modern fingerstyle and bluegrass spectrum — Kostal, Bashkin, Goodall, Bourgeois, Pre-War, and many others — and the staff has earned a reputation for knowing each instrument in detail and matching buyers to the right one.
