Collings Guitars
Collings Guitars come out of Austin, Texas — a shop that started in a Houston apartment in 1973 and grew into something close to an institution. Bill Collings was the kind of builder who would reject a guitar over a tolerance most players couldn't feel, and that standard became a Collings trademark: crisp, articulate, pin-sharp tone that records beautifully and shows up in studios as often as on stages. Bill died in 2017, but the team he trained kept building, and the line has held — Collings still means what it has always meant.
Haggerty's Music
Haggerty's Music is a family-run shop in Rapid City, South Dakota — the Atlas's first dealer in the state — with roots in a 1963 Haggerty family department store whose back-room instrument counter grew into a full music store on West Main Street. Today it's best known as a Taylor powerhouse: a Taylor Premier dealer carrying one of the largest Taylor selections in the Atlas, deep in One-of-a-Kind custom builds, Gold Label, and the flagship 800-series line, with recent stock reaching into the high five figures. The boutique acoustic floor extends well past Taylor — a strong Santa Cruz shelf, Martin and Gibson acoustics, and the occasional Collings — alongside an active used and consignment trade. For Taylor shoppers especially, Haggerty's is a genuine destination, and a rare high-end acoustic stop in the northern Plains.
