Don Gallagher Hand made guitars from £1750 Don Gallagher and his family have been making Guitars in Wartrace Tennessee since 1965! He says, "Our guitar making is not just a business; it is a way of life." Don's claim to fame (I can vouch for the fact that Don isn't the kind of man who craves fame) is making guitars for Doc Watson. Two Doc Watson models are in the range. Every Gallagher made has been logged and when known, changes in ownership recorded. These are completely hand made guitars in the American tradition - all built with the highest quality solid tonewoods - from the heart of country country (if you see what I mean). They are of the very highest aesthetic and acoustic quality at very reasonable prices. The Acoustic Music Company is delighted to be Don's only UK dealership. |

Gallagher G-50
Was £1750, Dusty Corner price £1495.
Another great flatpicking dreadnought from Don, this G-50 is in spruce and mahogany with an ebony fingerboard and bridge and bone nut, b/w/b ivoroid binding and gloss finish. It's a very good price for a hand made American guitar. Strong focused bass, well defined, vibrant mids and clear bell-like trebles. No wonder Doc Watson plays Gallagher, these are the flatpicker's dream machine.
