Godin 5th avenue with Lollar P90

[Algonquin]

Do you know whose P90 is going in with the Godin version?

The Godin site just lists it as a 'Godin Kingpin P90 single-coil pickup'

Yup, Aeolian. Mine was modded by Erick at CB Perkins with a Lollar P90.

All I know about the P90 in the Kingpin is what 'Gonq' posted.

I love this archtop. This is great tot!

I'd love to purchase an acoustic version and then install a Benedetto floating pickup on the neck... add volume/tone pots on the pickguard and an acoustic type pin-jack and you dont even have to drill anything!

Have you played one yet Abraxas?

It's voiced slightly differently than a standard archtop, which I like as I plan on playing all types of genres on it.

Unfortunately not my friend. Godin's dealer in Greece doesn't import all the models, although I believe we shall see one of those here in the near future.

But from what I hear it's a wonderful instrument that carries on the Godin tradition of great but affortable guitars. And if you can keep the feedback on check you will probably be able to explore it's potential to the full.

I have no issue with feedback as I only play at home. In fact, I make sure to point the amp directly at the guitar & I stand close. I love the interaction of the guitar & the amp. It doesn't feedback that way, but it does breathe.
