Player's Perspective
This Godin 032150 ACS, sleek with a timeless touch, is an example of true 21st century guitar innovation. Using a traditional classical guitar as a foundation, Godin revamped the body design to eliminate feedback and increase ergonomics, as well as install a great-sounding LR Baggs preamp and an output system capable of connection to Roland synths. This combination of features undoubtedly makes this instrument one of the coolest we've had at the shop from a functional point of view.
Not to mention, it plays fantastically and sounds great, as well - the maple body with basswood wings and a robust cedar top sounds full and clear for both strummed chords and delicate fingerpicking alike. For an instrument that taps into the future whilst remaining true to guitar traditionalism, give this 032150 ACS a look!
Item Specifics
The ACS blends classical guitar concepts with elements of solid body design. The incredibly comfortable neck of the Multiac ACS, combined with a Maple body & Cedar top, contribute to making it Godin's most affordable synth access guitar ever. Although the body is chambered, the response from the cedar top is more typical of a solid body design than a traditional acoustic guitar. This design results in an instrument that is virtually free of feedback, making it easy to use even when the band gets loud.
The engine in the ACS and ACS Slim includes individual transducer saddles powered by a customized preamp system by LR Baggs™. This system not only produces superb amplified sound, but also produces a hexaphonic output through a 13-pin connector enabling direct access to RolandTM GR-Series guitar synthesizers.
