It manufactures t in Canada possde a fixed bridge with 6 LR Baggs Transducer sensors (piezo), a rosewood handle 22 boxes 24 'very very pleasant, 2 Godin humbuckers, a slecteur 5 positions, one volume, one Tone modulator its piezo and microphone (for output 2) and two outputs: one electric and acoustic / electric. We can then, by plugging the guitar, the SECOND exit on electroacoustic amp, switch from acoustic sound (by LR Baggs piezo), which is of very good quality sound electric dlivr by humbuckers. Guitar can also plug in a guitar amp stro and electroacoustic amp or PA system.

USE

The handle is, as said Sylvestre Planchais "a beautiful highway" ... And even if it has made a lack of agreement in the language of Molire, since in France is used rather the feminine for dsigner highway than the male, I must admit that I entirely agree with him. In addition, the guitar has very nice mahogany, it remains trslgre and has nothing to envy Ibanez, Jackson or MusicMan of mtalleux at ergonomics! In addition, the guitar is a childlike simplicity about rglages: limb pain, the sound is already very good and, as long as we do go out in the str o, two among an electroacoustic amp for example, the sound becomes magical! 10/10 hsiter without a second.

SONORITS

I play jazz, blues, funk, folk: I would say it is definitely THE guitar that suits my style, my game and my expectations. Of all the guitars I possdes is the one I prefer for its versatility, the richness of its sounds, ergonomics, weight and others. Certainly the Montral do not really play in the court of big sounds Gibson, but offers quality sounds with grain ... so in the big leagues. Clean sounds I think can suit all styles of music in the register-l ie: blues, jazz, funk, pop, ska, reggae, rockabilly, etc. The range of sounds saturs is also very tense, from blues to Mtal (except perhaps for the extreme Mtal ... but I do not play). I use simply with SR Technology Jam 400 and is a rgal! For me, this guitar is approaching my concept of Idale guitar, voil all. I did not know Godin rest and be quiet until the monsters on Ibanez, Gibson and Fender, but I must admit that the discovery of this model very pleasantly surprised me.

NOTICE GLOBAL

I use it for a week, after having heard and amply m'tre document on the guitar. I played a Gibson Les Paul Custom which I blamed too lev grain and fat sound of microphones, in addition to its weight, then a Fender American Deluxe Stratocaster V-neck, which did not satisfy me at the touch and the grain here too dry. I find that Godin Montral runit all my aspirations sound MATIRE because the sounds seem be obtained prcis me, warm and efficient time. No doubt this guitar excels all the same more in blues and jazz than other styles. New post: almost a year after I confirm my opinion on the sound quality, versatility and ergonomics of the handle: if you play jazz, blues or funk or even soul, I highly recommend this guitar.
The price is not the most accessible (new 1800 average) and I buy opportunity but the quality-price ratio is very okay my faith because this guitar is, I rp you really exceptional. I think I would do this choice and certainly I'm really not ready to Sparer me to this gem.
