Sound Pure's Take

The pale engelmann spruce top on this concert jumbo contrasts beautifully with the reddish mahogany back and sides. The maple binding and abalone add a touch of elegance. At first glance, the words that come to mind are "curves" and "power". This is a huge Guitar with incredible focus. Strum an open chord and listen to the overtones pulse. It's a clean, fresh sound. There's ample bass in the background with incredible articulation in the foreground. To play it is a truly liberating experience. It captures every nuance, whether strumming, fingerpicking, or flat-picking. If you need a big sound, but also need to be to "focus" on soft, complex passages all over the fretboard.

Travis Hall of the Sound Pure Pro Audio Team briefly discusses the more general physical and sonic characteristics of Small Diaphragm and Large Diaphragm Condenser microphones. For this comparison we brought back our Miktek C5 SDC and C7 LDC microphones for comparison on two different acoustic guitars. Being a Small Diaphragm Condenser with a faster, smaller capsule, the C5 showcases incredible transient detail, string articulation, and an overall tighter low-end. With it's larger capsule size, the C7 Large Diaphragm Condenser showcases a little more warmth and roundness (particularly in the low-end) and smoothed out some of the transient detail from the strings. While every mic has it's own unique voice and response, these broader characteristics and differences can be found in all Large and Small Diaphragm Condenser microphones. If you're having difficulty hearing the differences feel free to email us at mics[at]soundpure.com for the full length hi-res audio files to compare for yourself. Both the Miktek C5 and C7 mics are available for Sound Pure's free try-before-you-buy demo program. If you'd like to set up a trial period to hear one of these incredible mics for yourself, would like to talk more about SDCs vs LDCs, or just microphones in general, feel free to shoot us an email or give us a call at anytime. Thanks for watching!

From Goodall Guitars

The Concert Jumbo, a beautiful new shape!

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 powerful, rich, and clear tone has exceeded my expectations"

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.

The Concert Jumbo series guitar is slightly smaller than the Standard series and larger than the Grand Concert series guitar. It is available with all the same fine options and wood choices as in all Goodall guitars.
