Goodall Standard sitka/mahogany - USED
Used in excellent condition. James's standard is a variation on the Dreadnought with a slightly more rounded body shape. A more versatile guitar could not be imagined, its got enough bass to satisfy the hardest driving flat-picker but with well defined middles and trebles, fantastic clarity, separation and balance and enough volume to be heard in any situation but play it gently and the response is there. Its a beauty too, take a look at those curly Koa bindings.
