Godin Multiac Grand Concert Duet Ambiance Is A Real Class 'Ac

Godin Multiac Grand Concert Duet Ambiance

You know what makes Darrell Hammond so great? It's not that he's a great actor -- hell, you can see his eyes following the teleprompter on nearly every sketch he's in -- nor is it his good looks (plain and yet mildly disturbed, is how I'd describe him). No, what makes Hammond such an indispensable addition to the SNL cast is his prodigious mimicry skills, something that he and the nylon-string Godin Multiac Grand Concert Duet Ambiance acoustic electric guitar have in common.

The Godin Multiac Grand Concert Duet Ambiance (takes breath) is a nylon string in the great tradition of the Godin Multiac, but with a remarkable sound imaging system that, literally, I will remark upon: cool! This four voice, selectable, blendable filter matrix adds emulated condenser microphone tone and air to the piezo undersaddle transducer for a richer amplified tone. The four mics emulated include a Danish Pro Audio small diaphragm condenser mic, a Soundelux E47 large diaphragm condenser mic and two Schoeps CMC64G small diaphragm condenser mics.

Like the Multiacs that have preceded it, the Grand Concert Duet Ambiance features a chambered mahogany body that virtually eliminates feedback, even in super-high volume settings. A solid cedar top and a neck that joins the body at the twelfth fret add to the guitar's natural acoustic resonance.

With a "deluxe" gig bag, the Godin Multiac Grand Concert Duet Ambiance lists for $1795.00 US with a MAP of $1495.00 US.
