Welcome to Goede Guitars
"Confluence Custom"
A natural looking, feeling, and sounding guitar.
Unique hand crafted guitars, built from the heart using locally sourced quality hardwoods and exotic woods.
Designed and built in Texas.
I am also head luthier for Birdsong Guitars and hand craft the original legendary bass designs in 4 and 5 string versions.
Crafted from one set of hands, from block of wood to finished instrument.
My name is Jake Goede and I am a luthier from central Texas that specializes in natural looking and feeling guitars and basses. Building instruments since 2006 with a passion for doing things hands on,
I view the natural flow and features of the wood as a canvas and do the best to showcase that in my work.
It's about more than just looks, These guitars come set up to play like a dream! Balance and ergonomics are priority. I also hand wind the majority of my guitar pickups, and take great care in shielding and sound quality in general.
Understanding what makes the whole puzzle come together to make these unique instruments come to life with all the tone, resonance, and playability you can expect from a high end quality guitar is my specialty.
Attention to detail....
All the work to these guitars and is done primarily by one single set of hands from block of wood to finished instrument.
I make it a point to make as much of the guitar and its components myself as possible, aside from hardware such as bridge and tuners etc. You will find hand-crafted details such as wood pickup rings, truss rod covers, control cavity covers often made from the same woods used in the rest of the build.
Opting for my hand-wound guitar pickups is not mandatory, I will use other brands as requested, but boy do they make them sing!
Well worth the time and upcharge.
