What We Think

Precise, powerful, and, for its size, deceptively personal.  We've had a few Pacific models and a few CJs from the Goodalls in the past but until now those paths have never crossed--we couldn't be happier with the result!  The Cedar and Maple seem to practically exist for one another on this model--all of the sensitivity, warmth, and color of the top is perfectly balanced by the Maple's punch, precision, and balance.  Fingerstyle playing feels gigantic and, given the sheer size of that top, flatpickers will experience similarly effortless delight.

One of a Kind Goodall Comparison: Master Redwood/Macassar Ebony GCC vs. Pacific Series CJ

Manufacturer's Description from Goodall

Concert Jumbo

In November 1998 after 26 years of building some of the finest steel string guitars ever constructed, James Goodall announced the addition of an exciting new box size. This is in response to increasing requests for a more comfortable, smaller body dimension than the Goodall Standard (near in size to the Dreadnought). The Concert Jumbo model is slightly smaller than the Standard series and larger than the Grand Concert series guitar.

The end result is a beautiful new shape called the Concert Jumbo. "The powerful, rich, and clear tone has exceeded my expectations," James Goodall said of his new Concert Jumbo. Since it retains the large acoustic soundboard area of the Standard or Dreadnought, while increasing comfortability and curvy visual appeal, this model has become a favored size for many Goodall Guitar owners.
