CS 0028K Acoustic Guitar - Used

Sound Pure sits at 808 Washington Street in downtown Durham, North Carolina — on the same block as the Durham Athletic Ball Park made famous by the Kevin Costner film Bull Durham. The shop is unusual in scope: three businesses run as one integrated facility — a boutique guitar gallery, a professional recording-equipment retailer, and a multi-room recording studio (with a ~1,000 square foot live room and a 7-foot Steinway grand). The three sides feed each other in a way no other dealer in the atlas matches: a buyer considering a serious acoustic can demo the instrument through a real, mic'd-up recording chain made up of the same high-end gear Sound Pure also sells. The boutique acoustic shelf is one of the deepest in the atlas, anchored by Bourgeois, Collings, and Boucher each at scale, with meaningful Goodall, Lowden, Santa Cruz, and Iris alongside, plus rotating Larrivée, Fairbanks, Huss & Dalton, McPherson, Petros, and Beneteau. Sold listings remain visible on the public storefront for an extended period, so the brand range that passes through Sound Pure over time is wider than any single-day snapshot suggests — Furch, Gallagher, Pre-War, Preston Thompson, Tom Bills, and Tom Ribbecke have all rotated through. Sound Pure is owner-operated by recording professionals who built the studio infrastructure themselves and use it daily, and that engineering-first orientation runs through the gear curation. For boutique-acoustic buyers who care how an instrument records as much as how it plays, Sound Pure's three-way integration is genuinely distinctive.
