Goodall Guitars
Goodall Guitars are built in Sparta, Tennessee by a father-son shop — James Goodall, his son Luke, and Jean Goodall running the business side. James built his first guitar in San Diego in 1972 as a self-taught seascape painter who traded an oil painting for the tonewoods (this was before guitar-construction books existed; he learned from scratch). Fifty-plus years later, the operation has stayed small and family-run, building hand-made instruments across thirteen body sizes and five series. The Goodall design language favors restrained appointments — the woods carry the visual weight, and the brand's reputation lives in player-to-player word-of-mouth more than marketing.
Chicago Music Exchange
A Chicago fixture in Lakeview, Chicago Music Exchange has spent a quarter-century as one of the country's premier vintage-and-new guitar destinations, staffed by players and technicians who relish the details. Amid a vast catalog of electrics, amps, and effects sits a serious flat-top room: unusually deep Atkin alongside Collings, Santa Cruz, and Bourgeois, with Goodall, Lowden, and Huss & Dalton rounding out the shelves. The boutique-acoustic selection reads like the work of people who actually play what they sell.
