Acoustic or Electric? The Choice is Yours
When you want to plug in and get authentic stage acoustic tones — but also dial in the bite of a humbucker when you need it — the Godin A6 Ultra Extreme Koa HG comes highly regarded among decorated session players at Sweetwater. This handsome Canadian hybrid packs versatile tones and a powerful preamp section into its lightweight chambered body with easy-playing electric neck. The A6 Ultra Extreme Koa HG boasts separate 1/4-inch output jacks for its acoustic and electric voices along with an intuitive slider system that lets you blend and EQ sounds into a single mixed output. This way, you can easily dial in the right sound for whatever style of music you choose — everything from jazz to country to rock to slide guitar sounds are right here. And, thanks to its quality tonewoods — including a richly figured, exotic koa top — the Godin A6 Ultra Extreme Koa HG is every bit as visually stimulating as it is tonally intoxicating.
A hybrid acoustic with the slinky feel of an electric
The A6 Ultra Extreme Koa HG combines superior amplified acoustic tone with the slinky feel of an electric guitar neck. Plus, its chambered-body architecture virtually eliminates feedback on loud stages. When you add in the electric punch of a Godin humbucker in the neck position, you have a hybrid guitar that defies categorization and is able to handle almost any musical challenge — onstage and in the studio.
Separate outputs and a custom Godin preamp
The Godin A6 Ultra Extreme Koa HG's undersaddle transducer and dual acoustic and electric outputs join forces with a custom Godin preamp to deliver a huge sound that's specially voiced for your instrument. The preamp section lets you control your tone via sliders for acoustic volume, treble, midrange, and bass, along with independent controls for the electric humbucker's volume, treble, and bass. Whether you're using the single blended mix output or routing both outputs to separate processors/amps, you have absolute control over your tone. From jazz to rock and country, the A6 Ultra Extreme Koa HG delivers. It's even an awesome slide guitar for blues!
