The Goodall Thread (Serial Numbers, Pictures, Discuss Anything Goodall!)

[Chedeng88]

For those who haven't seen this yet:

[jseth]

Just watched it from a link on Facebook... pretty well done, I thought. I don't think that James and Luke get enough "props" for their exquisite instruments...

I heartily agree with the sentiment expressed late in the video, that, although not "cheap" by any means, Goodalls are really a bargain and easily hold their own with guitars costing much, much more...

Yeah, my jumbo is that guitar from Buffalo Bros and it is killer. James only built somewhere between 10-15 guitars with the "Big Goose" tops. The guys at Buffalo Bros claimed there were only 5 built with it but that seems unlikely.

Here are a few (admittedly poor) iPhone photos of the guitar:

[Mr. Paul]

THR000 4652

2006 Honduran Rosewood, European Spruce

This was a fantastic guitar from day one. It's seen some pretty good action in 10 years and has that shimmering Goodall voice.

Nice guitar! I don't know, but I think James does something rather special with Euro spruce and Honduran rosewood. My HRCJ is no exception.
