Members guitarist21 Posted March 31, 2008 Members Share Posted March 31, 2008 Gorgeous! Congrats. I've been looking to play a Santa Cruz for a while now. GP gave the Santa Cruz Firefly a glowing review and my curiosity has been piqued. Not that I have the money to buy one any time soon but that I'm just interested to know what the fuss is about.

Members Chirpy_72 Posted March 31, 2008 Members Share Posted March 31, 2008 That's beautiful. I really like those 12 fret slope shoulder dreads. GAS has been hitting me hard lately, and a Santa Cruz OM is on my list of "must try" guitars. Enjoy breaking that baby in.

Members C70man Posted March 31, 2008 Members Share Posted March 31, 2008 I only have heard one. It's a local Florida guy who brings it out only on perfect nights. I had to ask him what it was when I first saw it...it sounded just like it looked....beautiful.Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members min7b5 Posted March 31, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 31, 2008 .... how does it compare with the collings dred? charming rendition of blue monk, BTW. No quite as loud, but it seemingly makes more sound if that makes any sense. The Collings is a very focused guitar that cuts through the mix. The D12 has lowered lows and higher highs, very balanced. It moves a lot of air. Unfortunately, I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
