Master Port Orford Top and AAA Palo Escrito Rosewood Body
$11,610.00
The Goodall Palo Escrito Crossover is a beautifully crafted nylon-string guitar that blends classical warmth with the comfort and playability of a modern steel-string acoustic. Its Master Port Orford cedar top and AAA Palo Escrito rosewood body create a rich, expressive voice with exceptional clarity, sustain, and dynamic response. Designed with a 14-fret neck and crossover dimensions, it feels instantly familiar to players transitioning from traditional acoustic or electric guitars. Elegant appointments including ebony trim, mother-of-pearl inlays, and a striking Padauk rosette reflect Goodall's renowned attention to detail. Refined, responsive, and visually stunning, this is a premium instrument built to inspire for decades to come.
"Concise and balanced tonal clarity"
Goodall Guitars has introduced a nylon string Crossover guitar that will satisfy the most discriminating guitar player. Our Nylon string Crossover models are truly a wonderful blend of steel string playability and classical guitar tone and projection. We styled them to have a beautiful, elegant look, somewhat in-between a classical and a steel string guitar; a little Spanish influence blended with some Western inspiration.
"suitable for strumming as well as fingerstyle playing with equally satisfying results"
A truly refined classical instrument has a powerful separation to each note and a brilliant and powerful treble which makes its voice somewhat strident and less satisfying when strummed like a steel string, but our Crossovers have a little more blend, balance, richness and sustain making them suitable for strumming as well as fingerstyle playing with equally satisfying results. There is plenty of clarity on the treble stings though and when pushed they really sing out, giving a wide dynamic range. The bass is very full and resonant, but not overpowering.
James Goodall represents an artisan who is at the pinnacle of his profession. Superb craftsmanship, an exacting finesse for detail and wood choice, combined with robust, three dimensional sound character -- these are qualities which embody every James Goodall guitar.
Few who endeavor in musical instrument making are capable of consistently maintaining a high level of precision and excellence along with superior tonal character in every instrument. Discerning eyes and ears will find the substance of all these qualities in every James Goodall instrument.
