Campbell's Music has been carrying members of the Godin Guitar family for about 20 years.  Few companies can make that distinction.  Members of the Godin family include: Godin electric guitars, Seagull acoustic guitars and Art & Lutherie acoustic guitars.


The Godin Guitar company is one of the oldest Canadian instrument makers around and our brothers to the north make some fine guitars.  In today's market it is hard to find companies that offer lacquer finishes (better for tone) and premium tonewoods that aren't either imports from Asia or high end American guitars.  Godin offers the above and much more at prices typical of Asian imports but quality competing with the best American brands out there.


About each member of the Godin family:


Seagull - Probably the cornerstone of the Godin Guitar line.  All solid tops with a compound curve, genuine lacquer finishes, slightly wider neck excellent for fingerstyle players but not too wide that other players won't find it comfortable.



Art & Lutherie - Out of the same factory as the Seagull and Simon & Patrick comes the Art & Lutherie (A&L) series.  For the A&L's Godin uses much of the same elements as their higher priced brothers but makes some small changes to provide a lower priced guitar.  Up until recently A&L's were all laminated but incredibly good sounding.  Godin decided that they could add solid tops to the A&L's and make them even better.


Godin provides what few companies can without resorting to Asian imports - high quality at very affordable prices.  Next time you think that only an American company will get you top quality, check into a Godin Guitar.
