Martin Guitars
Founded in 1833 and still building in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, Martin effectively invented the American flat-top — and its Custom Shop is where that lineage still gets made by hand, one guitar at a time. On the Atlas you'll find only that end of the company: built-to-order Custom Shop instruments and the Authentic Series' pre-war reproductions (hide glue, hand-shaped bracing, VTS-aged tops), not the standard catalog.
Dream Guitars
Dream Guitars sits in Asheville, North Carolina, in what may be the most photographed shop in the boutique acoustic world. Their inventory runs deep across the modern fingerstyle and bluegrass spectrum — Kostal, Bashkin, Goodall, Bourgeois, Pre-War, and many others — and the staff has earned a reputation for knowing each instrument in detail and matching buyers to the right one.
