As one auto parts salesman now a guitar salesperson once relayed to me. Santa Cruz is just not as known back here east of the Mississippi. Santa Cruz advertisements are always classy and appealing.
I don’t think it lacks for known player’s loving them . All things come in good time and Santa Cruz Guitars are still on the rise. I’m looking forward to my next SCGC build.
A most formidable question . My very simple partial answer. Marketing imagery. Why did more smokers buy Marlboro rather than Winston?? Winston lacked that association with the Wild West ??? Santa Cruz more akin to Frodo and the Hobbit…… Terrible analogy but I think it gets the elusive dull point across. One of the great mysteries of our universe. I,ve owned 12 Santa Cruz but only 1 Collings? May the force be with us. I HAV’NT HAD MY COFFEE YET

I’m leaning towards the Ital/coco OMgrand. It’s got more warmth and presance. Nice. Thanks. Now if I could find a OM Grand Port Oxford cedar /Koa to compare. @@$$$!!!
That was a very enjoyable way to start my day.. Would appreciate SCGC ‘S thoughts on bridge, top and bridge plate coupling in regards to tone coloration , Maple. Mahogany or Rosewood bridge plates. Ramping, slotting and bridge pins and there bearing on tone. Thanks to all !!!
I’ve Only seen it used as a binding or marquetry inlay on a few guitars from Japan, Yamaki,Yairi, Tokai, Never as a back and sides tone wood use. I could imagine it looking sharp as a combo three piece back for Mando or guitar.
