Gibson Guitars
Founded in 1894, Gibson built the flat-tops that run through a century of popular music — the J-45, the Hummingbird — and still makes its acoustics by hand in Bozeman, Montana. The Atlas carries only its Custom end: the Historic reissues and Murphy Lab–aged recreations of those vintage models, not standard Original- or Modern-Collection production.
Black Mountain Guitar
Black Mountain Guitar Co is a full-service shop in Cave Creek, Arizona, just north of Scottsdale in the Phoenix metro — a community-minded store that pairs sales, repairs, and lessons with an active events calendar, from intimate 30-seat artist clinics to monthly songwriter, Americana, ukulele, and blues jams. For acoustic shoppers the high-end shelf runs Martin- and Gibson-forward, anchored by Martin Custom Shop flat-tops and Gibson Custom historic reissues, with the occasional top-tier Taylor — a selection that sits firmly in the custom-shop and historic-reissue tier.
