Construction and woods

The manufacturer equips the instrument with a solid cedar top to give the robust Multiac construction a warm and wide-ranging sound. A maple body with two sound chambers additionally provides a fast response, which is especially noticeable with light pickings. The flat mahogany neck is equipped with a noble rosewood fingerboard, which measures a stately 60 mm at the nut and in combination with a generous cutaway is easy to reach even in the higher registers.

Hardware and Design

The in-house Godin Dual Source pickup system transmits the sound via a piezo element in the bridge and two sensors fixed in the body. A preamp is installed on top, which has five sliders that allow you to adjust the master volume, treble, mid and bass frequencies from the outside in. The fifth control allows precise crossfading between the pickup points of the system. The headstock is equipped with classic tuners, which guarantee a reliable tuning of the 7 nylon strings with their 16:1 ratio. In addition, a compensated bridge insert and a saddle made of GraphTech TUSQ ensure clean intonation on the 651.7 mm scale length. The Godin Multiac Nylon Encore 7 Natural Semi-Gloss is rounded off with a matte semi-gloss finish.
