Full Building of a Custom Goodall Guitar

[@justicegusting2476]

I went to high school with James Goodall, Jim was a friend of mine. Even 52 years ago he was meticulous with all that he did. From making surfboards to painting seascapes, I never knew anyone with the work ethic nor eye for detail like Jim Goodall. Even now when I’m doing tedious jobs around the house or sanding something that taxes my failing vision, I consciously try to channel my “inner Goodall” and it always seems to come out a little better. I think his parents had a lot to do with what a great guy he became.

[@0ptimal]

Lovely comment

[@samuelklimmek5176]

I had the unique opportunity to meet the owner of the actual guitar that they made in this video and even play the guitar itself. I've been playing guitar for over 20 years, and I was immediately impressed by the action all the way up the fretboard and the ease of playability. The tone was great as well. These guys are good at what they do.

[@vsmicer]

I'm both a luthier and a session musician...I absolutely loved this. Perfectionism made sound. I may actually buy one.

[@ansman1]

I met Daniel Markoya and his wife Valerie in 1973, the year I got married to my first wife of 44 years. My acquaintance with him was brief, but unforgettable. I still remember him showing me chords to some of his earliest music. I still have a guitar strap he made for me back then, along with a leather engraving he gave us. We lost touch for many years, but I watched this video because a friend of mine sent me a Goodall guitar to sell for him, and a view into their work process got my attention. This was a guitar they made for Daniel, and he produced the video, which I found out at the end of the video. Thanks to this video, Daniel and I have reconnected. I am now doing acoustic guitar repair in my 1200 sf shop here in North Central Florida, so the factory tour was very interesting. I and every friend of mine who have played that guitar has been blown away by the tone and playability. Now I know why.

[@Everydaymesses08]

So THIS is how a $8000-$10000 guitar is built. WONDERFUL. Unlike anything else. Incredible craftsmanship. Work of art.

[@jimamsden]

I have a 1998 Goodall that I bought new in NC. It has K&K pickups, the first installed in our area. It is one of my most prized possessions. I want to thank Goodall Guitars for making what I consider a work of art that produces new art. I'm privileged to play such a fine instrument.

[@randyporter3491]

I have no idea how I got here. I was enjoying a “Andes Goat Herding” video and this came up. Glad it did too ! My dad was a songwriter who loved quality acoustic guitars. He had his first Martin from the 50’s, that he cherished dearly. He had many others over the years, but that one was part of him. He wrote 13 #1 songs and “Song of The Year” on one. I lost him recently, but have his beloved instruments. No, they are sure no replacement for my best friend, but they hold a piece of his soul and his music lives forever. Thanks for sharing your amazing love, passion and craftsmanship on here. Some may say “It’s just a guitar..”. Well, if you have to explain, they wouldn’t understand. I sure do and I don’t even play. God bless ! 🇺🇸

I started my day stressed, then I started watching this video. The passion and love for the craft and the humble pride you hear in the voices are impressive. 49 minutes well spent and my day and mood have improved significantly. Thank you for making this video and I hope people will value your masterpieces over mass-produced guitars.

[@bobpotts9993]

Seeing how clean and efficient your shop appears to be is amazing to me. Every station has a custom jig specifically for a particular task. This makes me want to throw my build out with the trash. Truly amazing to see.

I'm a musician and stumbled on your video. I normally won't watch something this long but it caught my attention and I've now watched it a few times. The skill and artistry you put into your guitars is amazing. It's nice to see craftsman and artists like you that care so much about their work. There are so many brands of guitars out there but yours look and sound so much better - well done.

[@robertklokk]

I tried a Goodall baritone guitar at Mandolin Brothers on Staten Island about ten years ago. I still remember to this day the feeling of playing that guitar. I can't say that about any other instrument. And I mostly play and teach electric. I don't even have the slightest interest in woodwork! But I sat through this entire video, not at any point looking to see how long the video was. I'm very grateful for people like these two guys doing what they're doing.

[@leeasnin2442]

This is as close as one will get to actually having a shop tour and staying for days to witness the completion of a Goodall guitar without being physically present. The voice overs from James and Luke are wonderful! I am fortunate enough to own several Goodall guitars, to have spent time in their Fort Bragg shop and home, and to call them my friends. This video truly shows what master luthiers, actually artists, they are!

[@jv1969]

how do they sound? do you have a preference over types of wood?

[@MICKEYISLOWD]

Are these guitars as good as say a Santa Cruz high end guitar? I once played a Santa Cruz OM model and it took my breath away for the feel and the strident piano like sound. I imagine Goodall guitars are as well built and the detail to care here is outstanding. My perfect guitar would be Brazilian Rosewood back and sides with an Engelmann spruce top or Sitka with black Ebony fretboard and minimal decoration like the SC OM type.

[@billdowney6891]

Not only are their guitars gorgeous but for a father and son being able to work together is priceless.

[@andrewito9463]

When I first started playing acoustic guitar in the late 80's I'd go to McCabe's in Santa Monica and play all the fine guitars. I dreamt of someday owning a Goodall and had the model and woods picked out never thinking that someday I'd have the pleasure of owning one. Maybe 10 years later I was in a guitar shop in San Diego about to pull the trigger on a Larrivee that I wasn't quite sold on. Out of the blue a friend called me, while I was in the shop. He didn't know I was out shopping for guitars and I hadn't spoken to him in quite some time. He told me there was a beautiful Brazilian Rosewood Goodall Standard with a cutaway sitting in a small shop 30 minutes from my home near LA. It was priced at just under $2K! I immediately dropped everything and drove down to that shop and bought it on the spot. I asked the store owner how long the guitar was in the shop for. "A couple of weeks I guess", was his response. Guys would come in and play the guitar but no one bought it. I don't know how it sat in that shop, got played and still remained available for purchase but I absolutely KNEW it was meant for me. On the drive home I got a unmistakeable sense that this was a God given gift and I never will forget that moment. I still have and love this guitar today some 20+ years later. It's seen some rough times and repairs from James and his crew but it's more special to me now than ever and an instrument that I'll cherish for the rest of my life. I've played and owned many fine instruments since including Ryan, Olson, Doerr, Charis, etc. but THIS Goodall is the one that I always come back to. Thank you James for building the most beautiful looking and sounding guitars that I've heard and played. The world is better for having you in it.

I met Jim at a Men's Retreat up in the Sonora hills in the late '80's. Only had the weekend but on one night I was going to play for the group of men a new song I had written. As I was practicing Jim came into the room, listened a bit to me playing my 1974 Fender F-65 (I think), maybe and ovation. He offered I could try one of his guitars to play that night. I did and will never forget it. I could never afford to buy one but what a joy to play it and what a really great guy. Thanks for the memory!! ❤

[@mwj5368]

I was going to go to bed, very tired, but glad I clicked on this. I am only amateur with guitar, yet have a love for them. It got my whatever, adrenaline(?), going to see two state of the art artisans, luthiers, create such beauty and sonic wonders, and not only that, how profound it is a family tradition, a father and son working together. My sleepiness vanished! I lost track of time and see its 3:15AM! All the one of a kind tools and how easy you make such fine work appear, the every move so disciplined and precise. The end result seems an illusion, like that wood is not wood, like it is something unfound, quarried from rare corner of the earth. That special wood looks or reminds me of agates, or some rare gemstone, not wood it is so deep and iridescent-like with a 3 dimensional quality. Also those guitarists and the beauty of sound that comes from your creations, astounding! I watched the credits for every guitarist's name they are so phenomenal and your guitars sounding so too. The narration is so well done and from the son, and also all the editing right on, and angles and closeups. The videographer/documentarian really knows what they are doing and so synchronized, and even moments where the camera moved right along with the son and the father as they when about their magic. I have to laugh as I like too, and only my amateur view, how you don't really know exactly how they join the neck to the body if I use the terms correctly ha! It's great to keep those secrets, yet maybe just me, that perhaps there is no secret. I think there is a secret because after watching over time other guitar building tours that union of neck and body is very crucial to sound quality -- yet everything is crucial with such profound design and artistry. The shop too and how it took so many years to perfect every phase of building and types of tools and machines needed to do it right and safely. Thanks so much for this experience!

[@rickbensemon7742]

We were privileged to tour the Goodall workshop last Friday. What a wonderful, warm and patient family as they showed us (7 of us) the details of guitar construction. Then they allowed me to play their amazing guitars! We spent 5 days vacationing in Ft Bragg. This experience was by far the best part of our trip and it was not even planned (last minute decision). Watching this video was really fun. Hope someday to save enough to purchase a Goodall. The hand of the Lord is in every instrument. Thank you for your gracious hospitality. Blessings and Shalom
