Godin Progression Electric Guitar (Trans Cream, Maple Neck) Review

Godin  Progression Electric Guitar (Trans Cream, Maple Neck)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Recently I ordered the Godin Progression in a trans cream colour.
The guitar looks, feels and sounds great. If you like a floating tremolo as I do, you need to adjust the settings. Standard the tremolo is resting on the body for the people that don't use a tremolo. My guitar was with the standard setting ok.
As with any new guitar I always service the guitar to set my personal settings (string height...etc.). It's a very versatile guitar including the High Defintion Revoicer. I use this feature mainly to have a bit more punch for clean rhythm parts. The fretwork is excellent as well as the overall finish. The neck feels smooth, more comfortable than a standard Fender strat. Taking into account the price/quality, this guitar is a great deal and can easily compete with the major league. You'll be impressed with the natural sound which is also reinforced by the extra big magnets in the single coils. With the 5 way switch you can retrieve all the classic sounds and more. For sure a guitar to recommend.

I shopped guitars in the $1000 - $1600 price range for months, and the SWS mini-jumbo is better than most. It really can't be beat for this price, especially since I bought it on sale through Amazon. The sound is full and mellow, and the short scale, thin neck and 1.8" nut width make it a joy to play. It sounds great strummed, picked, acoustically or plugged in.

Godin Exit 22 Solid Body Electric Guitar (Natural Mahogany RN) Review

Godin Exit 22 Solid Body Electric Guitar (Natural Mahogany RN)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought my Godin Exit 22 as my "return" instrument after taking up guitar again after a twenty-something year break. Here's what I can tell you: This is a great guitar, made even better by a very reasonable price. As it came off the rack, action was set a bit high and intonation was a little off, but after having it set up by my local tech, all is well. Been playing it for hours every day for almost two years now - mostly blues and rock & roll - and feel like I am finally growing into it. 24 3/4 scale makes for easy, slinky bends - so more of a Gibson touch to this guitar.
Sound is wonderful through my Roland modeling amp, with solid, clear, clean tones from the single coil bridge and middle pups and as much nasty growl as one wants through the bridge humbucker. (I tend to play with the bass on the low end, but there is plenty of bottom-end available if that lights you up.)
Easy and comfortable reach of the upper frets is enhanced by some thoughtful sculpting around the neck pocket. You run into some smooth curves rather than a vertical wall a la Fender.
I could go on and on. Most important is that this is a solid guitar at a very, very reasonable price with plenty of room to grow. Oh, and the satin maple neck has gotten faster, while the mahogany body has gotten prettier with age and playing, so an added plus...

Godin SD 22 Electric Guitar (Amber Flame Leaftop RN) Review

Godin SD 22 Electric Guitar (Amber Flame Leaftop RN)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Bought the Godin SD 22 but not from Amazon. Bought it from a private owner who bought it new and never used it. I own both an American Telecaster and Les Paul. This guitar is somewhat a combination of both and maybe a little Stratocaster in there too. You will find the wood quality excellent, (Canadian) The guitar has a balanced feel where it is not too heavy like my Les Paul. The frets are flush to the sides when you run your fingers over them. The knobs are knurled metal and have a nice feel. The single humbucker pickup gives some nice tones. The two single coil pickups are OK too but not as good as my telecaster. All in all, a very versatile guitar with excellent quality for the money. I would buy it again.

The SD 22 combines the easy feel of a short scale with the added snap of a rock maple neck. The short scale reduces string tension, which provides easy string bending and augments the low frequency response. The compact feel of the neck and the diagonal radius carved into the body produces exceptional balance and comfort. In short, this guitar is fun to play, and lends itself to classic rock and R&B sounds.


Maple and Poplar Body
The SD 22 is constructed with a blend of two tonewoods. A center of silver leaf maple serves as an anchor for the neck and is flanked by poplar sidepieces, resulting in Godin's stated goal of making electrics that begin with a great acoustic sound. Solid body instruments may not produce much in the way of volume, but make no mistake, wood weight and density, type (and quality) of the neck/body attachment, type of bridge and nut material all have an impact on that final sound.
One Godin GHB1 humbucker and two Godin GS1 single-coil pickups, along with a five-way switch for serious tonal options.

Godin LG P90 Solid Body Electric Guitar (Trans Black Flame)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got this guitar through one of a kind deal. Not sure why but sometimes Amazon will have crazy deals on guitars. I got the guitar for very cheap (over 60% off) via Amazon.
The guitar is made of solid wood. Maple flame grains really adds to the style of the guitar. I get a lot of complement on how nice the guitar looks. The only gripe about the looks is that the headstock feels and looks a bit cheap, although I like the styling.
Sound-wise. I run the guitar through a Digitech RP-500 multi-effect pedals to a set of Bose L1 PAs. At home, I usually run it through my headphones (again using the Digitech RP-500). The output is very high, and you can get nice, glassy sound via the two Seymour Duncan P90s on the guitar. The guitar is pretty heavy so make sure that you use a comfortable strap (e.g., wider around the shoulder contact point).
It comes with a nicely-padded gig bag with Godin label. The gig-bag has a lot of pockets for extra strings, tuner, 1/4 inch cables, etc.

Godin 5th Avenue Archtop Jazz-Style Acoustic Guitar (Natural) Review

Godin 5th Avenue Archtop Jazz-Style Acoustic Guitar (Natural)
Average Reviews:

(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.

Godin LGXT Solid Body 3-Voice Electric Guitar (Trans Blue AAA)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Guitar is very playable and worked well with my VG99 systems (once you set up the VG99 to handle the guitar) Functionaly I had no complaints.
My complaints are with the appearance of the guitar. I purchased a LGXT AAA in Transparent Blue and It looked nothing like the Pictures. The coloring was very dark (hardly "transparent") and the wood grain was not visible in standard room lighting (under direct sunlight it was visible but I tend to play in darker bar environments). I was very disappointed.
When you purchase a guitar of this Grade you have expectations and this time I was let down. It looked nothing like the pictures from the website or the owners manual. Heck the serial number even looked like it had been re-stamped to include the "AAA"
Next time I need to see the guitar before I buy. Not gunna use Amazon for this type of purchase again.

Godin Exit 22 Solid Body Electric Guitar (Natural Mahogany MN) Review

Godin Exit 22 Solid Body Electric Guitar (Natural Mahogany MN)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I really love this guitar. Was a little cautious, since I hadn't played a Godin before. But, sought out a few local shops and they had some in stock (none had the Exit 22 though). Just to get the feel of the product line I checked those out and was happy with how they felt.
I like the unique and constrasting coloring of the guitar. Really like the metal knobs on the volume/tone (so much so I'm swapping out on some of my other guitars).
The neck plays very well, and like the maple on this model more than rosewood. Neck is a bolt on, and strings are through the body. The high frets are reachable and elecrified sound is quite respectable.
There are some complaints on the web that the humbucker is subdued. On the back of the body there is an opening (plastic box cover) with markings that look like for battery (i.e. active pickup) - but I haven't seen any connectors. Haven't opened it up to see what's in there, but haven't had a problem with sound level at all.
The combination of HSS pickups really provides quite an excellent range of options for voicing out of this. The pickups are very versatile in the sounds you can get out of them. This is a great bargain product, I'm happy with the high quality of all elements and the playability of the instrument. It's got the ability to sound like just about any other electric, that is a great feature.
This is a nice guitar and I'd recommend it if it appeals to your style.

Godin 5th Avenue Archtop Acoustic Guitar - Cognac Burst Review

Godin 5th Avenue Archtop Acoustic Guitar - Cognac Burst
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am a great fan of archtop guitars- I own three- and I have long been a fan of Godin guitars, who produce instruments of exceptional quality and value. When I saw that my local music store had the new Godin archtop in stock, I immediately started doing a mental inventory of my collection, figuring out what I could sell to buy this instrument. But playing it changed my mind. It's not at all of what I think of as an archtop guitar- though it may be just what you're looking for.
A little background. Flat top guitars have a resonating surface made form a thin layer of cedar or spruce or some other light wood. They're designed to vibrate as easily as possible. Traditional archtops, on the other hand, have a top carved from a much denser wood- traditionally maple. Whereas the classic flat top guitar sound is big and boomy, and designed to produce a big sound that ranges from bass to high treble, the traditional archtop sound is more percussive, and more midrangey. It's designed to punch through an orchestra in its rhythm role.
This guitar may look like an archtop, but it sounds very much like a flat top guitar, but I think that was intentional. Archtop guitars are becoming more and more popular with the rock and alternative crowd- something that I think goes back to Elvis Costello's "Monkey to Man" video. If the typical modern player picked up a traditional archtop he or she would probably find it unplayable- .013 gauge strings and a high action are a far cry form the low action and skinny strings most players favor.
So Godin has produced something with a very traditional look- think Mother Maybelle Carter for the black version illustrated- with the light action and even sound of a flat top- ad they're done a very good job of it. The instrument I tried had the quality you'd expect of a Godin, along with a good balanced tone and a very easy playing neck. If you're looking for something a bit out of the ordinary for that band you're fronting, you might give this one a try.

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. 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. The Godin 5th Avenue....the archtop acoustic of the past, for today's modern musician.

Godin Session Electric Guitar - Blackburst SG RN
Average Reviews:

Love this guitar. Bought through Amazon and came firmly packed in the Godin box, snuggly packed in the Godin gig bag. Out of the box this thing is ready to play. Neck feels perfect for my hands, not thick and fairly thin but not as thin as an Ibanez neck. Action is very low, had to adjust it a little higher to get rid of some string buzz.
Pickups are good, every setting sounds really good, especially when you split the humbucker.
No flaws whatsoever on this guitar. I got the blackburst and it's not my favorite color but there were no marks, dings or anything whatsoever. Guitar feels really solid but not heavy. It is a finely crafted instrument for not a whole lot of money. Defintely worth the money.

Godin 5th Avenue Archtop Jazz-Style Acoustic Guitar (Cognac Burst)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This guitar was amazing right out of the box. I was leery of buying a guitar on-line, sight-unseen primarily because I knew I would have to deal with setting it up myself. My first surprise was the guitar was nearly in tune already! I fine-tuned it and checked the intonation of each string at the 12th fret using an electronic tuner. Every string was perfect. The action and neck relief were already set just to my liking (there's plenty of differnce in personal preference on this point, but it was clear that the person who made the adjustments cared about getting it right). In short, the guitar came out of the box ready to play.
Pictures of this guitar do not do it justice. My cognac burst model is absolutely beautiful. Its lines and proportions speak elegance and many small details put it in a class with much more expensive guitars. The satin finish gives the guitar a very rich woody feel. The wild cherry of the body is boldly grained and the grain is enhanced with a subtle undercoat of dark pore-filler. The grain is bookmatched (identical on either side of the center line) on front, back and sides. The headstock shape is reminiscent of classic Gibsons but much narrower again adding to the elegance. The use of a 17 degree headstock angle (also reminiscent of classic Gibsons) provides for a strong break angle at the nut while contributing to the guitar's dramatic profile. The headstock's high-gloss black face is off-set by a narrow band of cream around the edge and a tortise-shell truss rod cover matching the pick guard. The neck is bolted on (a technique pioneered in high-end Taylor guitars) and "floats" where it meets the body allowing the top full freedom to vibrate. And the sound? Amazing! I have had the guitar for a month now and I can not get enough of playing it. I had thought I would use it for a few swing-type number I play with my band, but I am using it for everything. The tone is full and balanced and, as other reviews have said, "woody." The volume is amazing from such a compact box (only 3 inches deep). The projection and sustain are incredible, strongly developed upper partials add to the resonance, and the guitar is a canon when miked at the lower f-hole. I could go on, buy to keep it short I'll say this guitar is worth far, far more than I paid for it. I don't know how Godin did it but they've created a work of art that anyone can afford. Amazing! BTW this guitar fits perfectly in the Musicians Gear Deluxe Hardshell Dreadnaught case and it looks great in the tweed version which I bought.

The 5th Avenue is Godin's take on the archtop jazz-style acoustic, complete with classic looks: Canadian cherry in a polished burst finish, a floating pickgaurd and cream binding, and the requisite F-holes. But with modern touches like a height-adjustable Tusq bridge by Graphtech, it definitely lets you keep one foot in the past and the other firmly in the present.

Godin 5th Avenue Archtop Jazz-Style Acoustic Guitar (Kingpin P90, Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I had some trepidation in buying a guitar from any online seller. There are variations in manufacture of musical instruments. After all, it is not like buying an appliance or piece of electronic gear where there is a guaranteed sameness from one unit to another. With a guitar there will be variation from unit to unit in finish and workmanship. It is important to not only select the manufacture and model of guitar, but be comfortable with the individual unit. The guitar sent to me was perfect. Absolutely no imperfections of any sort. I have had professional, music store setup on my other guitars, but this one I will play as is.
I had previously tried the Godin 5th Avenue out in a music store. I had read many positive reviews. It also helps that I am a big John McLaughlin fan who now plays Godin guitars exclusively.To The One I knew it was a guitar I wanted to add to my collection. I was put off a little by the price. The price was a bit out of my range. I am a non-gigging amateur, intermediate player. I dabble mostly in jazz.
I had been checking on the price of this and a few other models on Amazon. There are serious price swings on some guitars listed on Amazon. When I saw the price drop on this one, I was compelled to act.
As for the instrument itself; first the appearance is top-notch. It is a beautiful looking instrument. Many details of the guitar and the finish just quietly shout "serious instrument". That it is made in North America (Canada), I find an added plus. I have a Chinese made Epiphone that has required replacing the electronics.
It plays as good as anything I have ever played on. I don't think it projects well enough acoustically to play to a room unplugged. It is excellent for acoustic practice or unplugged canoodling. I have a Fender DEC-Junior that I practice with. I play this on the "Tweed" Amp simulation. The tones are clear. Perfect for accompaniment.
I am still playing with the original strings. I will replace with the same type and brand (Godin) . I will not modify this instrument for now. I do like to play Frankenstein with modifying my guitars.
Other things to note - quality components throughout, like a Tusq nut.
I also bought the Godin TRIC case for the instrument and would recommend the case as well.Godin Tric Case Archtop Deluxe for 5th Avenue (Black) I live in a Northern climate where there is low humidity in the winter, so I will be outfitting this guitar with a humidifier.
To sum up. This is one beautiful, quality serious musical instrument. I have been making purchases from Amazon both big and small since their inception without complaint. I will continue to do so. As for Godin, I would definitely buy another one of their guitars. I am currently considering the Freeway SA Synth Access and a La Patrie Dreadnought.

I got my LGX-SA about 4 years ago and it has been an awesome guitar. The best part about it is people seeing it and going: "what is that?" They play it and go: "wow, how come i've never heard of this brand?" The guitar looks beautiful and plays great. It plays way different than a Gibson or Fender. I would relate it to a PRS or Parker. Some say its a little harder to play than a Gibson, but once you get use to it, it becomes very comfortable. The acoustic pic up sounds pretty good. I wouldnt say its the best pic up out there, but its nice to have on the guitar and is highly adjustable. You can get a pretty good sound out of it depending on what amp you are using.
My guitar has the custom seymour duncans on them. You can get a really nice clean sound out of them, but if you want a heavier sound you can get pretty strong EMG type sound as well. Very versatile pick ups.
The only thing I dont like about this guitar is the weight. Its pretty heavy and if you dont have a little muscle on your shoulder you may get tired after a while.
I have never used the synth on this guitar. I didnt buy it for the synth, I bought it for the overall quality and beauty. I will however try it out once I can afford the stupid Roland thing that costs an arm and a leg.

I purchased this guitar as a practice guitar and one to bring to my weekly lessons. My primary instrument is a custom guitar from one of the top luthiers. I wanted a guitar that I could have easy access to so as to increase my practice time. I purchased this guitar because of its wide neck, small size and the excellent reviews I had read.
I am very pleased with this guitar. It sounds great. I lowered the action by shaving the height of the saddle. It is extremely playable. It is a tremendous value. I bought the version with the built in pickup which works very well.
Although I bought it as a practice guitar it is good enough to be a primary instrument. I also purhased the amazing value Seagull Gig Bag on Amazon which fits the guitar like a glove.
Highly recommended.

Seagull Coastline S6 Burst GT QI Guitar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've had the Seagull S6 Burst Q1 for a few weeks now and it's a beauty of a guitar. I received it in perfect condition from Amazon, not a ding to be found, and the action was set up quite nicely out of the box. The onboard electronics, though simple and somewhat limited in terms of control, sound really nice to me. However, I play the guitar through a Fender electric amp (Blues Jr.) so I may not be as qualified a judge of sound as someone with a dedicated acoustic set-up.
The guitar sounds fantastic acoustically as well. The cedar produces a nice warm sound, and though not as loud or "boomy" as a spruce top, there is a fullness of tone to this guitar that I have rarely (if ever) found in the sub $1000 price range. It plays well and I haven't had any issues with the tuners. The onboard electronic tuner is accurate and easy to use.
It's worth mentioning that the guitar I received from Amazon looks QUITE different from the photo pictured. The pickguard is tortoise (not black) and the wood burst is more of a brown/light brown color rather than the black/orange stock photo. I'm not sure if there's just a lot of variance with how these models look or if Amazon (and every other online seller of this guitar) has an outdated picture. I'll post some photos of my guitar on Amazon when I get the chance.
Overall, I'm extremely pleased with the guitar. For the price I paid I feel like I got an amazing deal, but it doesn't do the guitar justice to say that it's a great guitar "for the money." It's a great guitar, period.

I highly recommend this guitar for anyone above a beginner. finger tapping is easy because it picks up sound so well. And the more you play this guitar, the grains in the wood start to open up and give you a better sound. if you are looking for a down side, i cant give you one. It gives a superb electric sound as well. I've recorded with it on Garageband and i can't tell any difference in sound from some thousand dollar guitars i've played. Highly recommended.
