Hi, my boyfriend is currently looking for nylon string guitars and we have found this one. There aren’t many video on it and I was wondering how the unplugged sounds without any effects. Also how loud would you say it is unplugged? An article I found says that it’s surprising loud
Well, imagine the sound from the video without the delay effects, very close. I recorded the video using a SM 57 microphone and the audio interface had a delay plug-in from to enhance the sound a little. it’s a thin body so it’s going be lighter on the bass side and not as loud as a full bodied guitar, but it’s definitely loud for the enjoyment of a home and you can always hook it up to an amp or microphone and improve it further. I like how it sounds clean with no amp nor processing. I will say though, that the neck is very narrow, so if he has larger hands or just used to classical guitars, it’s going to take a bit to get used to. Otherwise, plays very fast and comfortable. Could also look into the Ibanez TOD10, that thing plays like a dream mainly because of the neck profile, a little less loud than the Godin though. Hope that helps!
Not plugged in, using a Shure SM57 with a little delay and reverb. The mic was a bit further away so probably left out a lot of the detail. If you’re looking for a better unplugged sound, definitely recommend a full body with a cut away.
