(More customer reviews)While I was at my local music store looking for a new accoustic guitar, I was introduced to this amazing guitar. This was the first time that I had ever played an arch top and I fell in love, and what amazed me is it plays and feals better than an expensive accoustic. The old arch tops were big and bulky, very expensive
and had very little low to mid range sound that accoustic players have come to love.
While researching this guitar I found that this very guitar was a labor of love for Mr.Godin. He wanted to re-invent the arch top and did he ever!
This guitar has a big accoustic guitar sound. Has an incredible low,mid and high tones, it is thinner than most arch tops and has a great price. This has the true vintage spirit but with all of the modern tone and playability that a guitar player loves.
This baby comes with a single coil P-90 pick up,
Canadian wild cherry back and sides,
silver leaf maple neck,
adjustable floating bridge,
custom french "style" polish on the body,
1+ tone-1+ volume finished of by those classic top hat knobs,
16"FINGER BOARD RADIUS
24.84" scale
1.72" nut width
and an awsome, feather light molded guitar case.
If you love accoustic guitars you should take a trip to you're local music store and take this beauty for a test ride I promise you wont be let down. And if you love to play a traditional arch top I think you will be very suprised at what The Godin guitar co. has accomplished.

The Godin 5th Avenue brings you back to a time when the archtop acoustic guitar reigned supreme. With the soul of a 1950's archtop, the 5th Avenue is a true vintage spirit of yesterday with today's level of modern playability. With more projection & volume in the low/mids than traditional archtop acoustic guitars, the dynamically rich tone of the 5th Avenue makes this sophisticated instrument a dream to play, but not a nightmare to pay for. The Godin 5th Avenue now makes the affordable North American archtop guitar a reality! From Alt-Country, Delta Blues, Slide, Jazz to Rock, the 5th Avenue can really deliver both acoustically and electrically. The new Godin Kingpin P90 single-coil pickup delivers all that classic, vintage tone with presence, clarity and a little attitude thrown in for good measure! Made from Canadian Wild Cherry, the body of the 5th Avenue features a molded arched top and back, as well as an adjustable bridge, classic f-holes, contoured high-gloss headstock, floating pickguard and cream binding. Also, the rustic beauty of its Custom Polished Finish creates a gorgeous satin sheen reminiscent of the French polish of the 19th century.
