❌SOLD❌ Godin ACS SA Grand Concert Duet Classical Electric, Natural

On August 18, 2021 /

The Godin ACS SA Grand Concert Duet Classical Electric is a descendant of the Gibson Chet Atkins CEC – Cutaway Electric Classical. While Gibson eventually dropped the design, Godin picked it up and with some practical changes such as a bolt-on neck and a mix of piezo and synthesizer pickups have turned it into a very popular instrument used by performers worldwide.

❌SOLD❌ Julian Mario Rabaza Crossover Guitar, 1982

On September 23, 2020 /

Here is a rarity for North America – a Julian Mario Rabaza Crossover guitar dating to 1982 and built at Rabaza’s shop in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Julian Mario Rabaza has been well known South American circles for decades, and mostly builds Spanish style Classical and Flamenco guitars. This example is what we would now call a ‘Crossover’ model, meaning that it has a couple of adaptations for those playing other styles – Tango and Latin Jazz for example.

Alhambra 5PCT E2 Thinline Crossover Classical Guitar

On May 8, 2020 /

Part of the Conservatory line intended for serious students, the Alhambra 5PCT cutaway classical guitar verges into the area of ‘Crossover’ models, meant to make nylon string tone and responsiveness available to players in non-classical musical contexts. This model is based on the popular Alhambra 5P Conservatory Series Concert Classical guitar. Several factors help define the ‘Crossover’ models. Typically, the body has a cutaway and is thinner, and there’s a recognition that the guitar will be amplified. The thinner body reduced feedback, and the pickup and preamp help restore fullness.

Sold Out and Discontinued! Godin Multiac ACS Denim Blue Flame

On March 31, 2020 /

The Godin Multiac ACS SA in Denim Blue Flame is a direct descendant of a Chet Atkins idea and is intended as a ‘crossover’ guitar for those coming to nylon strings from the electric world. With this in mind, the neck is slightly narrower than a Classical or Flamenco guitar, and the fingerboard is crowned. The chambered body and solid neck of the Godin ACS SA are Mahogany, with a Richlite fingerboard – a composite material that does a good job of simulating Ebony. The top of this model is a figured Maple Veneer with a lovely translucent denim blue shade, providing an unusual and quite attractive appearance.

❌SOLD❌ Godin Multiac Grand Concert Satin Gloss, 2002

On February 13, 2020 /

The Godin Multiac Grand Concert has become a very successful and immensely practical instrument, and is based directly on the Gibson Chet Atkins CE Classical Electric from 1981.
By the early 1980s, Chet Atkins had shifted largely to playing nylon string guitars, but the instruments available at the time were strictly acoustic and not really suited to the realities of touring, and amplified or broadcast stages. On Atkin’s request, Gibson produced two models of a solidbody nylon string guitar, using Mahogany for the neck and a slab body, adding a Spruce top.
