Customer Reviewsfrom United States October 26, 2011 Music Background: Fingerpicking, Sound Engineer, Jazz AmazingI've had a lot of guitars over the years, and I don't usually review products but this guitar is stunning. The sound quality is amazing, and you can achieve a lot of sounds with the two pickups. The craftsmanship is unbelievable for the price. I would recommend this to anyone.from Midwest USA August 2, 2011 Music Background: Songwriter/Hobbyist Totally Underrated!I spent a good long time looking for a hollow or semi-hollow electric guitar with P-90s, I played everyone that I could get my hands on, including several guitars from companies I wouldn't normally consider. I couldn't be happier that I did. The Godin 5th Avenue CW Kingpin II feels amazing, plays like a dream, and sounds fantastic. What's more, there's a certain novelty to owning a Canadian-made guitar that's constructed from rapidly renewable resources, and build with the kind of care you'd never expect from a self-important American guitar company. The Godin 5th Avenue CW Kingpin II totally blew away every other similar guitar he played, which made buying one one of the easiest decisions I've ever made. I simply couldn't recommend this guitar highly enough.from Singapore May 26, 2011 Music Background: Singer/Songwriter (The Glad Stones) 100% Beautiful.It is the perfect guitar for me as it serves not only as a good Jazz and Blues guitar, but does just smashing for other genres.A fine guitar for that more acoustic oriented feel but whips up a big and deep tone when hooked up to the amp. It is a wonderful buy at such a good price. This 100% Beauty is definitely value for $$$! from New York December 20, 2010 Music Background: guitarist Really sweet acoustic guitar here folks!This arrived from Sweetwater within 48 hours after I ordered it in mint condition. The hard case is unusual, it is made of high grade foam. The guitar is not large and is exceptionally responsive to picking dynamics. Instant back porch blues and jazz pours right out from this guitar, Really plays well, the action is very low with no buzzing. Sounds vintage through a powerful amp like my 100 watt Marshall tube. Very clear sound, the pickups are also quite responsive. No noise no hum here. I have the cognac color but the burgundy looks appealing also. Smaller and more cozy than say the new Gretsch Tim Armstrong hollowbody. With the case the whole set up is very light on the go, I would say about 7 pounds with the case, A real winner here I am impressed with the quality of this manufacturer. If I did not already have enough solid body guitars I would also consider a Godin solid body such as the Icon 2.
