Godin’s Sophisticated Fairmount Goes Deluxe with Flame Maple
With a vintage-inspired concert body shape that takes well to an assortment of playing styles, the Fairmount CW Flame Maple GT acoustic-electric guitar from Godin is a clear-cut winner. Its flame maple back and sides and solid spruce top pack enough volume to keep lively strumming and sustained chords sounding big and full. However, the Fairmount CW’s tapered waist and 25.5-inch scale length make fingerpicking a breeze; it’s truly the best of both worlds and a stellar choice for ambitious composers or performing artists! You’ll find the Fairmount CW Flame Maple GT has a silver-leaf maple neck with a versatile “C” profile. Necks carved from maple neck tend to emphasize note attacks, resulting in a touch-sensitive playing experience that’s visceral and energizing. Of course, gigs and recording sessions are always just around the bend, and you’ll be thrilled with the Fairmount’s onboard HiFi electronics system. Designed by LR Baggs, the HiFi uses innovative bridge plate sensors to power immaculate high-fidelity acoustic amplification that’s remarkably true to your unplugged sound.

Only the fairest tonewoods for this Fairmount
The Fairmount CW Flame Maple GT features a special back and sides carved from laminate flamed maple, putting gorgeous natural figured grain on display. Flame maple not only looks stunning, but it also benefits your tone. Maple’s bright tone and fast response are solid fits for active players who want to roam the fretboard freely without abandoning note separation or clarity. Maple’s swift attack and moderate sustain times give notes and chords a strong presence early on that never dwells long enough to obscure your next moves. A solid Sitka spruce top backs the body up with a high-powered projection that grows more and more intense the harder you play. Moreover, the silver leaf maple neck has a satisfying “C” profile with a dense but lightweight feel to the touch, which makes for gripping playability that instills confidence and calm under pressure.
