Godin LGXT

I WAS LOOKING FOR A NEW GUITAR THAT DAY AND MY FIRST CHOICE WAS A FENDER AMERICAN STRATOCASTER BUT FINALLY END UP WITH THE GODIN. I BOUGHT IT IN A SMALL MUSIC SHOP IN MONTREAL. THE PRICE: $ 950.00, THE GUITAR IN YEAR 2000.

IT HAS TJE MIDI SYSTEM FOR A FUTURE SYNTHETISER.

P.S ALL IN CANADIAN $

IT'S A BEAUTY, PURPLE COLOR WITH EBONY WOOD. IT CAN BE PLAYS AS ACOUSTIC AS ELECTRICSINCE THE GUITARE HAS 2 JACKS PLUS THE OUTLET FOR SYNTHETISER. A VERY VERSATILE INTRUMENT AS A MATTER OF FACT.

THE VIBRATO IS TOO CLOSE OF CONTROL KNOBS AND THE JACKS MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO PLACE THE GUITAR ON HIS SUPPORT WITHOUT RISKING TO DAMAGE THE CONNECTIONS

VERY HIGH QUALITY CONSTRUCTION.

HAND MADE OF COURSE, THIS GUITAR WORTH 2,800.00$ BRAND NEW.

AND THE SOUND,,,,,,,,,HUMMMMMMMMM THE SOUND WHEN BOTH ACOUSTIC AND ELECTRIC OUTLETS ARE CONNECTED ON A DIFFERENT AMPLIFIER. IT AN UNUSUAL SOUND, JUST LIKE TOW GUITAR PLAYING THE SAME CHORDS AND THE SAME SOLO.

I DID A VERY GOOD BUY, BUT STILL HAVE IN MIND THAT ONE DAY I WILL OWN A FENDER,,,,,,,,,AMERICAN OF COURSE

Settings and versatility to top

UTILIZATION

Everything has been said. This guitar is the most versatile on the market. Certainly model is quite heavy enough .. (More wood electronics

To summarize, the most versatile guitar market

SOUNDS

In short, this guitar is the most versatile on the market
Micro single, double, piezo, synth access.
I do not like vulgarity or criticism but I failed to sell a real pretentious asshole, who accused him of setting perfectible handle ..
Admittedly, it was .. I had not played for some time and the handle was a little change .. Like any good violin, it remains sensitive.

This type reminded me of a truth .. Do not sell ..
I'll be tough, but if a certain "Gerald" contacts you, do not sell your LGXT him .. This is an old nose, swollen with pride and false claims, poor guitarist you proud suggests the need sell off your guitar ..... I almost have to .... TO AVOID

Certainty is not always a good counselor

OVERALL OPINION

the ultimate versatile guitar ... If you need to separate, do not Bradez. Take some time and then sell a musician worthy of the name ...

Three types of sensors: electric guitar pickups, piezo pickup for synth and guitar. 22 frets (I would have preferred 24 ...).

UTILIZATION

I like the handle, even if I have better, but it is also a matter of taste. only downside it is heavy.

SOUNDS

Rock sounds with Seymour Duncan pickups are very credible, I play mostly jazz and pop, and it is perfect in this register. the piezo pickup, I have not taken seriously at all at first, but my favorite singer wants more acoustic sounds other than these, that is to say ... .
I play plugged into a sound system with a boss GT8 where I spent time with my acoustic sounds ... .

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year in public and at home to models, it is often the only guitar that I take to save. I tried all kinds of guitars, and I had a big crush on this one a year ago, never looked back since ... .

See site Godin guitars.
The LGXT is identical to the LGX-SA except that it has an easel.
There should be two sets: one where LGXT is written in capitals and italics on the head of the guitar, and another to finish more sober (most recent).
The one I have is 2010 according to the serial number. The model was delivered in a rigid box Godin Canada / USA the most beautiful effect.

UTILIZATION

What a comfort! But what comfort this round!
While the guitar is a bit heavy, but that's because it is made with real wood tree
The shape is very well, this guitar is made and class.
The mechanics are great, once adjusted and tuned the guitar, nothing moves! It's really nice not to have to tune your guitar every time you play it.
The sustain is really really (really!) good.

SOUNDS

Sound level (the plural is actually required!), This is great:
- For output "electric", 2 humbucker Seymour & Duncan, 5 way switch. We go from his round, serious and hot (neck pickup) to a very clear sound (bridge pickup). I particularly like the 1 and 3 positions selector for blues and jazz sounds;
- For output "mix - acoustic", the three-band equalizer allows you to have very different acoustic sounds. And it can be coupled to the sounds of microphones electric and acoustic!
- For output "13 pin", you have access to Roland GR (I have a GR 55) and there ... yet other sounds, by hundreds! Besides those that you can create!

I plug in my amp SR Technology Jam 100: this is great! And with my little pedal from TC Corona chorus of electronics, it's very nice. I do not imagine that it would sound on a tube amp ...

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this guitar there eight months after "searched" long. She is beautiful, even stunning! I wanted EC model for its many qualities and I am not disappointed. I have not had tons of guitar before, so that I may now be looking for something ... different. But I keep my LGXT Cognac Burst! Next step: make a pedal board well thought out.

Godin makes great products (I was previously a nylon Multiac ACS-SA ... a marvel too <3). If I went eight months back, I wish so strongly that guitar.

PS: this is my first review on AF and I always wondered why surfers do not put 10/10 on a product they offering incense ... and then I do the same thing Just because I do not have enough points when compared to the "perfect" everywhere, it is quite difficult.
