Details
This is a one-owner Goodall that Gryphon sold when it was new. It's always been in the SF Bay Area, and hasn't seen much use in recent years as the owner has migrated to playing ukulele. There's only minor surface wear, no significant dings or damage and no repairs have ever been needed. If you're looking for a used high-quality guitar, this is the kind of condition and provenance you hope for.
The Aloha models were only made for a few years, and were Goodall's effort keep the cost down by using more simple binding and decoration (the same formula Santa Cruz tried around the same time with their PW models). Unfortunately, the small amount of time saved by making those guitars slightly simpler in appearance just didn't amount to significant savings and the project ended. But Goodall obviously didn't scrimp on how the Aloha models were constructed, and this one has the tone and volume that made their reputation. Comes in the original hardshell case
