These are marvelous instruments handcrafted by James Goodall in Hawaii and feature some of the most exotic tonewoods, finest tone, and best fit and finish in the industry. Goodall has relocated from Hawaii to California and James Goodall and his son are building guitars out of a much smaller shop. There is currently a long backlog of orders, several years, for new Goodalls.
