Here at Down Home Guitars, we love unique, custom built guitars. This masterfully crafted H13 custom from Santa Cruz Guitar Company in Santa Cruz, CA is a perfect example why. The H13 is Santa Cruz’s 13 fret deeper body build. Similar to a 000 but in the vein of the early 20th century Nick Lucas models, this is a great base on which to start a unique custom build. The H13 Custom is built with highly figured Sycamore back and sides with a mesmerizing grain reminiscent of animal hide and is perfectly paired with a premium European Spruce top with clean, tight grain. The Snakewood ‘century blocks’ fretboard inlay, pyramid bridge and bindings are a perfect complement and contrast to the Sycamore. Along with the headstock overlay, the artfully tasteful H13 Custom Sycamore has a natural quality that is absolutely unique. Other features include Adirondack Spruce bracing with Hot Hide Glue under the hood, wood cowboy rope top purfling, Gold Waverly tuners with matching Snakewood buttons and more.
Sycamore
Sycamore is a great sounding (and looking) tonewood that falls between Mahogany and Maple. It has good clean overtones like Maple but with that punch and warmth of Mahogany. Paired perfectly with European Spruce, this H13 is vibrant and melodic with clear note separation, balance bass and highs with full punchy mids.
