The Santa Cruz 00-Skye is a wonderful creation of Richard Hoover and the renowned jazz guitarist Eric Skye. Beautiful straight-grained Cocobolo combines with a mastergrade Adirondack Red Spruce top, a Honduras Mahogany neck and an Ebony fingerboard to give this slightly deeper body 00-model a bold and refined tone!
The origin of the Santa Cruz 00-Skye is Portland based jazz guitarist Eric Skye. Eric was named by 20th Century Guitar Magazine as one of the best rising stars of the American acoustic jazz scene. This hardworking instrumentalist has gained a loyal following both as a dramatic and expressive live performer. Eric is also an in-demand acoustic guitar instructor both in Oregon and in the online music community. He featured in magazines such as Acoustic Guitar, Guitar Player, Jazziz and Jazz Improv, and his music can be heard on Spotify, Tidal and NPR.
To match his distinct personality and playing style, Eric and Richard collectively dreamed up a gorgeous Cocobolo OO with an Adirondack top, unique 24.9-inch scale length for ease of playability, slightly deeper body for added bass and volume, hot hide glue with Adirondack Spruce, scalloped bracing and a distinctive herringbone purfling and ivoroid rosette. This instrument is designed for the excruciatingly accurate and sophisticated techniques of the most demanding jazz fingerstyler.
