«  nice bright but heavy »

Published on 02/26/14 at 05:41
Meeting in the U.S. with components produced in Canada, history circumvent import taxes on the U.S. market.

This is a guitar Performance Series, namely the mid / entry level at Godin. The model is no longer sold since qq years already but it is still found on the second hand market.

For features you can still find the product on the net (http://www.godinguitars.com/godinexit22p.htm), however, to summarize it is a guitar with a mahogany body with a handle in tune gibson, rosewood or maple fingerboard (if my copy), easel and a string through SSH config all stamped Godin (microphones, mechanical and hardware ...).

Note that it was sold with a beautiful cover by Godin Tobago, very strong and ultra well padded. Probably the most beautiful cover comes with an instrument of this range there.

UTILIZATION

The handle is very nice, the junction body / neck is ergonomically cut for easy access to acute. The action can be adjusted to adhere well to the handle.

Mechanical hold the road well and holding agreement poses no worries. The controls are very good and usable on almost the entire race.

Against by the guitar is really heavy, it weighs as much as a old LP. Suffice to say that it is very difficult to play long standing, at least if you are not saplings as a means North American.

SOUNDS

Sound vacuum is very promising, the violin is very well made.

Once connected we find, unfortunately, a very general guitar, with a small range of not disgusting but relatively devoid of personality sounds.

The positions of the microphones and controls not allow a lot of variations but the sound is sorely lacking in character.

I moderate a bit about my playing for the first two pickups you get two out three clear sounds pretty cool and good amp helping, to use effectively to rhythmic.

OVERALL OPINION

The violin is of good quality and would really deserved a set of microphones in more pronounced character.

Personally I had discovered during a stocking and I flashed on the ergonomics (low action, very good access to acute, not a sound disgusting) Then I played for about a year, alternating two other guitars in a reggae / funk oriented training.

I did not use that rhythm, only clear sound plugged into a Blues Jr. In this context I managed to find my happiness with both three blasts that went well.

I had sold for two main reasons: a pissed sounds certainly correct, however, not very inspiring, especially because of the weight too complex.

It is still found on the second hand market for a price quite correct. In view of the quality of the violin, I think if you have the budget for an upgrade pickups and muscles that can support its weight, we can do sth quite nice.
