This is a photo of my main guitar, a Santa Cruz OM/E — a model made for an early excursion into the export market but which is basically a Pre War OM. I've written a little more about this on my occassional blog: http://www.andyhowell.info/wingandaprayer/?p=56 |

I have several SC Guitars, but this is one that I think is the most beautiful . . . well, at least today! This is a 2006 Custom 00/m. It's an all mahogany 00 guitar that predates the 1929 Depression. I love this little 12 fret, short scale, slot head guitar with the S-29 purfling.   |

Alright - I'm gonna document my insanity (although I prefer to refer to this as proof of sanity) - This was the first time I'd had my Santa Cruz guitars in one place at the same time, so I decided to take advantage of it and share it with all of you -
L > R top - OM Braz/Sitka , H Koa - bottom - 000-NB Mahog/Sitka, 000 Koa/Adi, OM-42 EIR/Adi, H "Sonia" EIR/Sitka, 000-29 Mahog (w/ light burst)
I can't say just how wonderful and special each one is - Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Richard!!! Money may not buy happiness, but it buys guitars, which is as close as you get -

The only thing better than looking at these beauties is playing them, and Tad, thanks again for that privilege and pleasure today! It was a revelatory experience; I am enriched. Scott |

Scott, awesome 000! Play it often!
tadol, that is an impressive collection. OM/000 models are my favorite body size. 12 fretters have such great volume and balance.
