The Tony Rice Signature Model represents over 30 years of collaboration between the world’s foremost flatpicking icon and SCGC’s founding luthier, Richard Hoover. Today’s model incorporates decades of refinement in response to players’ demands and the sophisticated evolution of the master’s technique. Never intended to be a copy of Mr. Rice’s iconic 1935 Martin D-28, the TR Model is voiced to showcase his stellar lead work with influences from Clarence White to John Coltrane. This dreadnought delivers exactly what the contemporary flatpicking artist needs: substantial treble and midrange for rapid single-line lead, clean note separation for definition and the traditional bass boom without the woofy bottom end of some of the venerable Pre-war dreadnoughts. Master grade Indian Rosewood with upgraded European Spruce top and Adirondack Spruce bracing with hot hide glue give this instrument a professional presence at an attainable price.
Other features include Ivoroid body and neck bindings, Herringbone top purfling and rosette, Ebony extended fretboard and bridge, Nickel Waverly tuners, comfortable 11/16″ nut width and more.
