About this product
Product Information
The Godin 5th Avenue brings you back to a time when the archtop acoustic guitar reigned supreme. With the soul of a 1950's archtop, the 5th Avenue is true to the vintage spirit of yesterday with today's level of modern playability. With more projection and volume in the low and mid tones than traditional archtop acoustic guitars, the dynamically rich tone of the 5th Avenue makes this sophisticated guitar a dream to play, but not a nightmare to pay for. The Godin 5th Avenue now makes the affordable North American archtop guitar a reality!A great deal of time and research went into crafting the 5th Avenue. Revoiced for the music of today, it would not seem unfamiliar for this guitar to be seen in the hands of artists the likes of Jeff Tweedy (Wilco), Ryan Adams, or even Jack White (White Stripes). From Alt-Country, Delta Blues, Slide, Jazz to Rock, the 5th Avenue archtop guitar can really deliver.Product Identifiers

Custom Blues
Unfortunately for me the overall price paid for this guitar was too high. Governments love easy money with customs taxes and i ended up paying a 300 eur tribute to the Belgian government. Too bad i did not think to have it shipped to a friend in NYC that could have forwarded to me. i would have had no customs taxes and paid half price for shipping. In the end the guitar has been 1000 eur but i am happy anyway, it is in perfect condition and is a quality instrument, plays very well and is in very good shape. Thank you Cream City Music .. Even if i have been "creamed" :-) (but not from you of course). Regards CarloVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Love the Guitar, it was shipped very quick. Got to say I think a kid owned it because I swear it had peanut butter and sticky jelly all over it. but once I cleaned it up and put some new strings on it, a little adjusting here and there and it is great. Did not come with the original Godwin Case that was a bummer but I am always playing it, so the case is just thrown over to the sideVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
