Godin

Description

New for 2017, La Patrie releases the handcrafted Arena thinline series - boasting features and playability that up until now have been unheard of in a nylon string guitar. The Arena’s generous cutaway allows the player to explore the entire radiused fingerboard of its extremely fast and comfortable Mahogany neck. These guitars feature intricate rosettes, custom polished finishes and an innovative double-function truss rod system not generally found in traditional classical guitars.

This model is features Mahogany back and sides with a select pressure-tested Spruce top to ensure the highest levels of stiffness and rigidity along with maximum harmonic vibration. Offered with Godin’s highly praised Q1T preamp, this thinline acoustic/electric nylon is a performer’s dream - at home, on stage, or in the studio.

    First impression I was amazed how loud this guitar is considering how thin the body is. I've owned a few different Godin guitars and regret letting them get away, this one will not. Everything on this guitar is so balanced. A slight radius on the fretboard makes it comfortable enough to play any style of music. Tuners ,frets, bridge and finish are up to snuff and reflect the high quality I'd expect from Godin. However I did have to shave a millimeter or so off the saddle and straighten the truss rod a tad. The electronics sound great, and the built in tuner is very stable and not figity like some cheap tuners can be. I'm very glad that the neck is finished in satin while the body is gloss. I would definitely buy another one of these.
