Testing my new Godin ACS SA Natural Flame Maple

[VinniePaah]

Can anyone familiar with both tell me what's the ACTUAL tonal difference between this flame maple top (could be not flame as well) and the mainstream ACS cedar top one? I suppose cedar will sound mellower than maple since maple is very dense ans as such it will sound punchy and blunt, good for dynamic response but not so good for overtone-rich sound. With maple top this guitar is probably good for cutting through the band but for mellow solo pieces cedar would do better.

Your thoughts people?

Hi ! I've been interested by this video cause I got a Godin Multiac duet, and with this video, I can see that it's not exactly the same guitar. You got a RMC preamp. 5that sounds really well, when I got a L.R.Baggs preamp. the difference is that I don't have a midi connection, but two ways, a piezo + an electret mic(condensator), with Jack + XLR to plug my guitar. Now, I've read that all the new Godins have a Fishman preamp, and they sound well to. BYE !

very nice. I just bought a used Godin and can't wait to try it. If I can play it or it sounds only half as good as you, I'm set.

Warm regards

The sound of this guitar is tha same with the ACS slim?? or not? Its the same model but with different neck?

[vudlender]

@gmyrianthous

Yep, the same sound, the only difference is slim neck.

Hi!

Nice playing, I play this song too)

I think of buying this Korg processor, are happy with it?

Would you recommend it?

[vudlender]

@Livsie

Highly recommended mate, looks like a toy, but its a good thing, and its pretty cheap nowadays.

That's sounds every bit as good or better to me than the more expensive Grand and Duet models with the mic modeling. I ordered one of these Limited Editions last night. Musicians Friend has them on sale for only $799. Actually I got my local Guitar Center to match the price and ordered through them.

[ibnzjemjr]

nice sounding guitar dude... can that guitar sound with out an amp?

[vudlender]

@ibnzjemjr

Thanks! With no amp it's pretty silent, but enough loud for practicing!

Vudlenderu poznah te po prstima!!!

Pozdrav iz belog sveta.

What do u think about ur amp? is it good to live situations too? Im planning to buy it, the price is good, cheaper than a roland.

[vudlender]

It's good enough if you are playing with a band. But if you have gigs by yourself only and ig the venue is extremely acoustic, then Roland is a winner.
