Its carefully selected fixed specifications honor Richard Hoover’s original vision while making this iconic Santa Cruz model more accessible.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eWhat’s up with thirteen frets? The historical precedent for this classic shape was the Gibson “Nick Lucas Special” from the 1920s and ’30s, the one Bob Dylan holds in early photos. The “H” designation acknowledges Maestro Paul Hostetter, guardian of the lore of all things vintage and stringed, who commissioned SCGC to build the prototype in 1978.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eSCGC’s concept for the H-13 is to achieve power beyond what would be expected from a small-bodied guitar. Two fundamental lutherie tricks make this possible: a longer string length, creating more downward pressure at the saddle, and a deeper body, providing greater volume and bass response. To place the bridge in the optimal position for power while maintaining the longer string length, the neck joins the body at the 13th fret.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe result is a gorgeous classic with the power and presence expected from a much larger instrument. Perfect for aggressive fingerstyle blues and vocal accompaniment, the H-13 also feels exceptionally comfortable to hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTop: \u003c\/b\u003eSitka Spruce \u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack and Sides:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mahogany\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Binding: \u003c\/strong\u003eIvoroid with 529\/H13 Purfling\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Binding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ivoroid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony with 2 3\/16\" Spacing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Pins\/End Pin:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eEbony with MOP Dot\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bone, 1 3\/4\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSaddle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bone, Drop-In\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e V\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeghead Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tapered Square, Slotted\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mortise \u0026amp; Tenon Hybrid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTruss Rod:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully Adjustable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrets:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium 18% Nickel-Silver\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeghead Veneer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ebony with Ivoroid Santa Cruz Logo\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nickel Waverly, Ivoroid Buttons \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBackstrip:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-Style \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRosette:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ivoroid\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25.375\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBracing Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sitka Spruce \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrace Pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e H 13 \u003cspan\u003escalloped\/tapered\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRadius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\"- 18.5\" Compound\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan\u003eHigh gloss nitrocellulose lacquer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003cspan\u003eSatin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickguard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tortoise\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStrings:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSCGC Low-Tension\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase: \u003c\/strong\u003eDeluxe Hardshell Case \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Santa Cruz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49860372627698,"sku":"SC-H13-2001","price":6750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0301\/9721\/files\/SantaCruzH13_002AvailableatLarkGuitars_5a182967-7bea-41c8-903d-8f086fa88dd0.jpg?v=1789504544","url":"https:\/\/larkguitars.com\/products\/santa-cruz-founder-collecter-h13","provider":"Lark Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
