Godin

Canadian-based Godin Guitars released its new Multiac Encore Nylon electro-acoustic guitar model, which offers amplified nylon string sound, custom electronics, and much more.  

Godin Guitars has pulled the curtain on a bunch of new guitar models for 2010, including the Richmond Dorchester and Belmont, the Godin Progression and Session, the Godin 5th Avenue CW Kingpin II, Godin Multiac ACS-SA/USB and Multiac Nylon Duet Ambiance, and many others.  

The new Godin Multiac Grand Concert Duet Ambiance is a nylon-string acoustic-electric semi-hollowbody with blendable microphone voice imaging electronics. It's perfectly suited for the the loudest stages, the grandest concerts, the. . . duet-est ambiances.  

Knox Bronson performs a variety of musical styles, from symphonic and electronic to vocal focused music. One key ingredient to his style is the Godin Multiac SA.  

Sludge-Metal separatists Godin announce that they'll be unveiling three new models to add to the Godin Redline series -- the company's metal-styled guitars -- at Winter NAMM 2009. And if you don't think Canadians can shred, you obviously haven't heard Obscene Eulogy. And if you haven't heard Obscene Eulogy, it's because they don't have a website or MySpace page, and their "fansite" looks like this.  

The small-bodied Goodall Aloha Koa guitar is back in production, with a few minor adjustments. The sitka spruce top and koa sides are still there, but the bridge and fretboard are now hewn from Bariensis rosewood, and it ships with strings that are covered in some sort of crazy goo.  

Godin (rhymes with Rodin, does battle with Rodan) stormed Summer NAMM with their newest Multiac, the Multiac Spectrum, and they took Nashville / New York-based finger-style guitarist extraordinaire Ryan Cavanaugh along with them to show it off.  

The recently released Godin Summit CT ships with Godin's special "high-definition revoicing circuit" that changes the overall voice characteristics of the guitar's humbuckers. It's like having two guitars for the price of two $500 guitars!  

David Schwartz demonstrates some of the many timbres, tones and effects that can only be created on a fretless instrument, like the Godin Multiac Fretless Nylon guitar he's brought in. Microtones and Glissandos are only the beginning!  

Trying to retrain your brain to "think fretless" is certainly not the easiest thing in the world, especially if you've spent years trusting in frets. David Schwartz is here to tell us how playing fretless can help you expand your mind as a musician.  

Godin's new line of hand-crafted, high quality electric guitars will all be manufactured by a small, crack team of luthiers in Richmond, Quebec, Canada. In honor of the new line, I'm starting a betting pool: who else thinks Richmond will achieve self-rule before Quebec?  

What do you do when you feel like you've exhausted your guitar's tonal potential? When you've been through every stompbox and every pickup type through every amp, and you still haven't found the tone you've been searching for? Maybe Godin's Multiac Fretless Nylon guitar is right for you, too.
