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.
The Acoustic Shoppe
The Acoustic Shoppe is a family-owned shop in Springfield, Missouri, run by The Chapmans — a touring bluegrass family. Every serial-numbered instrument gets a 23-point professional setup and individual high-resolution photography before going up, so the listing shows the specific guitar you'd be buying. Their boutique acoustic shelves run deep on Bourgeois and Boucher, alongside Furch, Atkin, Gallagher, and McPherson — a small-shop alternative to the catalog dealers.
