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

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



Godin 5th Avenue Archtop Jazz-Style Acoustic Guitar (Cognac Burst) Feature

  • Silver leaf maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and dot inlays
  • Adjustable Tusq bridge by Graphtech
  • Contoured high-gloss black headstock with die-cast tuners
  • Cognac Burst finish
  • Canadian wild cherry top, back, and sides with cream binding
  • North American made
  • Double-Action Truss Rod
  • Canadian Silver Leaf Maple Neck
  • Sweet smooth tones

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

A Modern Update on a Vintage Gem

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 and 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. From Alt-Country, Delta Blues, Slide, Jazz to Rock, the 5th Avenue can really deliver.

Godin 5th Avenue Headstock
Modern touches like chrome-plated hardware and a gloss-black headstock.
Classic Construction

Made from Canadian Wild Cherry, the body of the 5th Avenue features a molded arched top and back, as well as classic f-holes, a 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.

A height-adjustable rosewood bridge lets you dial things to perfection, and the silverleaf maple neck--featuring Godin's "ergocut" shaping technique--is a pleasure to play.

Godin Multiac Series-ACS Guitar (Black Pearl)

Godin Multiac Series-ACS Guitar (Black Pearl) Review



Godin Multiac Series-ACS Guitar (Black Pearl) Feature

  • Mahogany neck with ebony fingerboard and offset dot inlays
  • RMC Custom bridge transducer and preamp with three-band EQ
  • Built-in 13-pin connector for Roland GR-Series synths and most other 13-pin devices
  • 25 1/2-inch scale
  • Chambered silver leaf maple body with cedar top

Here's one of many innovative axes from Godin. The ACS-SA blends a nylon classical guitar with Godin's unique solid bodies, with a chambered maple body and cedar top. It features on-board electronics for a straight acoustic sound, and like many of Godin's instruments it features a 13-pin connector for use with guitar synths. Plenty of options here.

Godin ACS-SA

Godin's Multiac Series

The Multiac models represent the créme de la créme of the acoustic/electric guitar world. Whether you're recording, performing or just looking for an incredible plugged-in sound, these instruments deliver superb results. Several of these guitars are nylon string and the remaining are steel string. The various models are also distinguished by the two electronic systems used in the Multiac series guitars. The RMC-equipped Multiacs include synth access capabilities, and the Duet models feature custom dual source systems by L.R. Baggs.

A True Hybrid

The ACS blends classical guitar concepts with elements of solid body design. The incredibly comfortable neck from the Multiac Nylon is used here with a Maple body and Cedar top to achieve Godin's most affordable synth access guitar ever. Although the body is chambered, response from the maple top is more typical of a solid body design than that of a traditional acoustic guitar. This design results in an instrument that is virtually free of feedback, making it easy to use even when the band gets loud.

The mahogany neck holds an ebony fretboard with 22 medium nickel frets and offset dot inlays, and thanks to the deep cutaway you can actually access the higher ones.

Synth Access

The Multiacs that use the RMC Polydrive system can be recognized by the individual transducer saddles under each string. This system not only produces superb amplified sound, but also produces a hexaphonic output through a 13-pin connector, which provides these guitars with direct access to Roland GR-Series synthesizers. The key to the exceptional synth tracking of the Multiac lies not just in the electronics but also in the carefully selected and balanced blend of different wood used in its design. All of the materials used are the result of extensive prototype testing to achieve the best possible combination of plugged-in guitar sound and synth tracking.

Output Section

All of the Multiac SA models are equipped with two outputs. The 1-/4-inch phone output works with a regular guitar cord. The 13-pin connector provides hexophonic (a separate signal for each string) output for guitar synth devices.
