Godin Multiac Nylon Deluxe featuring Hubert Tremblay

Godin

collapse expand iconDescription

The Godin ACS-SA is a nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar that blends classical guitar concepts with elements of solid body design. The comfortable neck from the Godin Multiac nylon guitar is used here with a chambered silver leaf maple body and cedar top to achieve an affordable synth access guitar. Although the body is chambered, response from the cedar top is more typical of a solid body designs than that of a traditional acoustic guitar. This design results in a guitar that is virtually free of feedback, making the Godin ACS-SA easy to use even when the band gets loud.

The engine in the ACS-SA guitar includes individual transducer saddles powered by a customized preamp system from L.R. Baggs. This system not only produces superb amplified sound, but also produces hexaphonic output through a 13-pin connector enabling direct access to Roland GR-Series guitar synthesizers.

The Godin ACS-SA includes a gig bag.

    While I won't use this in the studio, I prefer the Fishman Triple Play for that, it tracks very well live and helps me find sounds that add to our church worship band when the real acoustic guitar is not needed. The GR 55 is perfect with. I especially like the onboard controls.

    I've been Jonesin' for a nylon string guitar to add to my arsenal. I tried several, but the thing that I kept coming back to was the intonation issues inherent in a traditional design. So, I started looking for a nylon string that had different compensation on the saddle pieces. I came across this Godin, and since I already have two 13-pin synth access guitars, this seemed like a perfect match. When it arrived, I was surprised to find that it's actually a solid body guitar with some chambering. I mean, I knew it was a slim body, but I thought it was a slim hollow body. In retrospect, this has some advantages and some disadvantages… First of all, this is NOT the guitar that you're going to grab to sit around the campfire with your friends. It's as loud as a normal electric guitar that's not plugged in. The advantage, of course, is that you can jack this up as loud as you please in performance without worrying about body howl type feedback.

    I've played guitar for a little over 20 years, everything from rock to jazz to fusion. As of the last couple of years, I've devoted most of my playing and studying to Classical music. When time to upgrade my played-out Ibanez nylon, I chose this instrument because of the synth access with nylon strings, which seems to be hardly offered in the market. What a great choice! This may be the most well-build, quality instrument I've ever played. Sounds great plugged in, and loud enough unplugged to practice without bugging my wife. I was concerned that the neck wouldn't be wide enough for me (I like a full classical 2"), but the string spacing is actually better than most 2" I've played. I've only messed around with the synth through my old GR33, and yet to make sensitivity adjustments, but it seems way better than the GK3 on my strat. I don't think one can go wrong with this instrument!
