Up for grabs is this gorgeous Godin LGX-SA in a (kind of rare for this model) AAA maple quilt top (as opposed to the more common ‘cognac-burst’. This one is used but in great condition. The black finish on the pickups is pretty worn and there is light play ware but overall this guitar has been pretty well kept. Feel free to contact us with any inquiries on this sweet axe. Comes with original hardshell case. Here is a detailed description from the Godin website:

he LGX-SA is a multi-voiced guitar. A jack-of-all-trades, and master of all of them, the LGX-SA's incredible sound power begins with three distinct voices: electric guitar, acoustic guitar and synth controller.
*Throughout this manual we refer to the humbuckers as mag- netics. The acoustic pickups found on the LGX-SA are referred to as bridge transducers.


Acoustics
Electric guitars are actually acoustic instruments. Perhaps not particularly loud, but the point here is that if a solid body guitar does not sound good un-plugged then it won't be saved by a great set of pickups and a good amp. There are many factors that contribute to the un-plugged sound of a solid body guitar but most of the response of the instrument comes as a result of the wood used along with fit and finish.
Godin guitars are made using only solid wood. Guitars made from plywood or particle-board tend to lack sustain and can be somewhat muffled sounding.


Body
The body of the LGX-SA is made from a blend of two tone- woods. A mahogany body capped with a figured maple carved top.


Neck Fit/Pitch
The angle of the neck attachment - called pitch - has a huge impact on sound, a slight tilt forward will cause the guitar to sound boomy, a slight tilt backwards can make the guitar sound tinny. Equally important is the fit of the neck into the body. Godin guitars are renowned for tight-fitting neck attach- ments that support excellent neck/body energy transfer and precise neck pitch.


Neck
Honduras Mahogany has a long history as the tone-wood of choice for acoustic guitar necks. The same properties that give mahogany its appeal in an acoustic guitar namely a warm harmonically rich sound have a similar effect in a solid body electric guitar.


Ergocut
The LGX-SA neck features our Ergocut shaping technique which bevels the edges of the fingerboard and frets back in towards the center of the fingerboard providing an extremely comfortable “worn-in” feel.


Ebony Fingerboard
The ebony fingerboard on the LGX-SA not only contributes to a more focused sound, but also helps to optimize the guitar's synth tracking capabilities.
