Comments about Godin LGX-SA AAA Flamed Maple Top Electric Guitar:
I bought this guitar basically to use in my studio for acoustic sounds and synth sounds with my Roland GR 55..and it sounds amazing and tracks perfectly. Ive read here and there about people having trouble with using it with a gr55..tracking problems and such...but all I can say is they must not have it set up right because mine work great and sound great together..the guitar is beautiful and very well made...and the seymour duncans are hot...again ..i cant find a single flaw with this guitar at all..it has become my favorite guitar overnight ...
The guitar is beautiful with the maple top and is equipped well with the seymour duncan pickups..they sound great and so does the hexophonic bridge pickup. the the neck is smooth and the action is good..its one of the first acoustic/electrics that i've played that performs well both ways. then you add the synth and simply amazing.
The guitar is solid and top notch well and is well made....everything works smoothly and I cant find a single flaw with it yet.
I got mine slightly used for $1596 and it was worth every penny.
Comments about Godin LGX-SA AAA Flamed Maple Top Electric Guitar:
perfect
iv played guitar for 25 years ive run the gambit or so i thought, i bought a roland gr-55 witch is great in and of its self,This Guitar is every guitar ive ever played and more .it came setup perfect the pickup was a little high but nothing to complain about i after 3 months of exploration this is the golden ticket .i bought a pod hd 500 and have a complete studio solution . all my other guitars just have had to sit in the corner and watch there is nothing this guitar cant do all the tones ive ever imagined plus all the synth and modeling ive ever dreamed the one thing that is the most amazing to me is playing the piano it sound so natural.
came the bridge was a little high lowered it and had to lower the bridge pickup after that however the intonation was spot on no complaints here realy.
after three months its replaced 4 other guitars and 3 other keyboards

Absolutely No Disappointment!
Oh well,
What can I say? Great sounding, extremely versatile . . . satinee Taylor neck, Gibson Jazzy, Fender Twangy, Martin Accoustic ie . . . It's a KEEP eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Do it all with 1 LGX. Great Accoustic, Electric, Mix, COSM like a variax, and even Twang like a Tele. This thing is loaded.
I had to return the 1st one, guess it was built on a Monday, but Musician's Friend inspected and sent a PERFECT replacement.
They really do stand behind the gear!
My initial impression of the LGX is that I will be Ebaying the other six that this replaces.
Comments about Godin LGX-SA AAA Flamed Maple Top Electric Guitar:
Great Guitar, better than a paul. Midi jack feels cheap though it hasn't been a problem. bridge has been giving me problems with the E not working, when it came back the B didn't work... 2B continued
Comments about Godin LGX-SA AAA Flamed Maple Top Electric Guitar:
I purchased the Godin LGX-SA last week here at Musicians Friend and have been completely floored with the breadth of colors this instrument has to offer. Only one day after receiving it, I used it exclusively at a gig with another guitarist which was probably risky but it certainly passed my tests: great action, holds its tune, and comfortable to hold (standing or sitting). It's real strength is the ability to mix the humbucker tones with single coil to produce sounds ranging from (amplified) acoustic to warm jazz to strat/tele to crank.My initial interest is it's midi capabilities but after performing out twice now this guitar may become one of my mainstays for everything I do onstage and recording. A beautiful, well-built guitar from Godin. If you ever encounter one in person, definitely check it out.
Comments about Godin LGX-SA AAA Flamed Maple Top Electric Guitar:
This is one amazing guitar. If you have a home studio like me this guitar alone will open many doors and allow you to do harmonies using many voices. I tried a Carvin SH-575 and sent it back, while it had the same features it does not sound as good as this guitar or track as well. The action is very similar to a Les Paul but this guitar is light. The controls all work as they should and with some practice you can handle your own mixes from the guitar. Mine has been slightly modified replacing the stock 5 way switch with a 3 way. I also replaced the pickups with Seymour Duncan JB and Pearly Gates.While this will not become my primary guitar in the studio it certainly will get a lot of work. Pair it with a GR-20 and you are set. I think this guitar is priced just right, I certainly cannot say enough good things about it.
Comments about Godin LGX-SA AAA Flamed Maple Top Electric Guitar:
This guitar will blow you out of the water. I went into a guitar shop looking specifically for a different guitar, was introduced to this, and left with this guitar. It is extremely playable and will work for virtually every genre. The acoustic transducers have a very good range and have made me forget about my acoustics. As mentioned earlier, the Roland GR-33 is a must have. I have two complaints with this guitar: first, the 13-pin input is a little shaky and doesn't seem to be able to take much stress; second, a lot of heavy picking can scratch up the surface pretty easily.
Comments about Godin LGX-SA AAA Flamed Maple Top Electric Guitar:
It is one of the best guitar I ever owned! You don't pay for a myth, you pay for a very high quality guitar. A Roland GR-33 is a must with this guitar.
Comments about Godin LGX-SA AAA Flamed Maple Top Electric Guitar:
I have owned this guitar for 4 years now and it is a very, very nice guitar. Unfortunatley, it has a few draw backs. The neck feels slightly thicker than a "standard" electric neck, but then again it could be because I am also used to my Ibanez with a Wizard II neck. The humbuckers in the single coil configuration do not have the punch of what a single coil should sound like. Also, the pickups don't pickup to well past the 15th fret. I use this guitar primarily for jazz and worship. I have yet to find another electric guitar that sounds as good as this one when clean. I will probably never sell this guitar because of how amazing it sounds.
