About This Listing

For this Jumbo, Goodall Guitars has gone all out when it comes to materials. With a back and sides made of AAA quilted maple and a top made of Master Grade Adirondack spruce, this guitar is an absolute eye-catcher. For the top of this absolute top guitar, Goodall has selected a piece of wood that is as light as possible in terms of weight in order to achieve optimal resonance.


James has a special fondness for the Jumbo series. This is not surprising, as this is the guitar he first chose to build many years ago. The Jumbo can be used for vocal accompaniment, solo or even fingerstyle performances. However, the guitar also distinguishes itself well with every conceivable playing style due to its beautiful sound.


The other features of this guitar are also certainly worth mentioning. The guitar has a curly koa binding that is finished with a purfling of ebony and maple, and the top also features an abalone rosette. The maple neck has an ebony fingerboard with beautiful abalone and mother-of-pearl inlays and has a scale length of 25.5 inches.


This Goodall Jumbo from 2006 has light playwear and some very superficial dings on the top. The guitar also features new Gotoh 510 tuners, and also features an LR Baggs Anthem pickup for an excellent amplified sound. The guitar is in excellent condition and comes with TFOA passport in a Hiscox hardshell case.
