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.
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.
