A powerful guitar that's going to just blow away anyone who picks it up! Flatpickers and fingerstylists alike are going to find it hard to deny an OM that is both more comfortable in the lap and louder than most OMs out there (you can thank the Goodall's partially scalloped bracing pattern for that!). Ample headroom, lush tonality, and substantial muscle in the bass and mids make this both a formidable rhythm instrument and a soloist's best friend. You can certainly hear the sparkle and snap of the Adirondack in the treble, too! Simple I-IV-V progressions and complex chord melodies sound equally incredible--brilliant but full, forceful but focused. This is the kind of guitar that seems to urge you on as you play...good luck putting it down if you're lucky enough to get it in your hands!
In this video, Sound Pure acoustic guitar specialist Barrett Brooks compares two used Goodall acoustic guitars: the 1987 Rosewood Standard #RS310 and the Traditional Addy/Mahogany OM #6340.
'A flatpicker's delight!'
The Orchestra Model is a greatly favored shape amongst our Traditional lineup. It features a smaller, more comfortable to hold body size than the popular dreadnought body shape. Its description is not unlike its bigger brother, the Traditional Dreadnought model.
"When we string up a Traditional Orchestra Model it's hard to distinguish from the Traditional Dreadnought"
Its tone is extremely powerful in the bass and midrange, with an emphasis on a broad warmth without lacking treble. All of our Traditional series models features a custom, partially scalloped bracing pattern which produces a bit more 'boominess' in the bass and midrange. The peghead and bridge have been redesigned for a more conservative visual appeal, with open gear Waverly tuning machines contributing to its charm. It is attractively arrayed with a herringbone marquetry rosette and top purfling, and a chevron marquetry backstrip. It has been designed especially with the flatpicker and the bluegrass player in mind.
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.
