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.
Acoustic Vibes Music
Acoustic Vibes Music is based in Tempe, Arizona, with a wide catalog spanning boutique builders alongside more accessible lines. Inside their boutique acoustic section sits a steady rotation of Bourgeois, Collings, Atkin, Furch, Larrivée, and Lowden — a meaningful presence in the high-end Western US market.
