House of Musical Traditions in Takoma Park, MD (just outside of Washington DC) is a dealer for James Goodall acoustic guitars. Here we have Mark Sylvester, one of our guitar teachers, demonstrating the Traditional Rosewood Orchestra (OM) model. Goodall's Traditional Series instruments include partially scalloped braces and a chevron marquetry backstrip, and are designed for the flatpicker or bluegrass style player. This model features an Adirondack Spruce top, Indian Rosewood back & sides, Ebony fingerboard & bridge, Boxwood pins, Maple herringbone binding & rosette and Waverly tuners.
List Price on this model is $6,500 and includes an Ameritage hardshell case. For availability and price, please contact HMT directly at hmtmail@hmtrad.com or 301-270-9090, or visit our website at www.hmtrad.com.
Goodall Guitars are handmade by James Goodall and his small staff of craftspeople in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. Every Goodall guitar features superb craftsmanship, an exacting finesse for detail and wood choice, and robust, three dimensional sound character.
