back story...
so i went to down to the usual guitar shop just to see whats new and if they decided to drop the price on the space echo pedal i've been watching for ages when i decided to wander into the acoustic room to see if there was anything i liked (i sold my rainsong just before christmas so i'll need a new one eventually). Now i'd seen the godin 5th ave. before online and i thought it was kind of cool with the flat black finish, and it had an interesting es-125/harmony/kay kind of appeal to it, so i thought what the hell, i'll try it out. my buddy grabbed the sunburst one and i grabbed the flat black one and we started playing on them, for $600 these are FANTASTIC feeling guitars. I didn't plug it in but from playing it acoustically it had great resonance and great factory set up. it looked identical to this...
tag that onto the list of guitars to buy i suppose, i really need to get my 2 projects finished so i can start buying guitars because "i'm missing that piece of equipment to fill a sonic void and have no projects to work on"
i think it would be outstanding with a lipstick hanging off of the pickguard for a bridge pickup, and might as well throw a switch in the pick guard to.
anyways, if you have a chance to try one of these out in store, i highly recommend it, great value, it really left an impression on me.
