differences between a Santa Cruz D-PW and Tony Rice model?
Just like the title says! Thanks.

I know the SCGC inlay is on the fretboard instead of the headstock, as well. Just wondering if anyone's had the chance to play them back-to-back, and what differences in voicing and feel they noticed.

Try the SCGC players forum. You could ask Richard Hoover himself. Or call Santa Cruz. Equally good chance you'll get to ask the man himself. They've always been very friendly and patient when I've had questions for them.

From the website -
"the TR Model is voiced to showcase his stellar lead work with influences from Clarence White to John Coltrane. This guitar delivers exactly what the contemporary flatpicking artist needs: substantial treble and midrange for rapid single-line lead, clean note separation for definition and the traditional bass boom without the woofy bottom end of some of the venerable Pre-war dreadnoughts." "The D/PW’s powerful volume, overtones and rich presence is an epiphany to the uninitiated. There are no unnecessary design features on this model, simply the finest materials treated to SCGC’s state of the art lutherie." Beyond that, there may be slight differences in the neck shaping as well. But I agree, a call to SCGC would be worthwhile -
