- Looking at this recently re-aqquired GODIN Freeway Classic Electric.
For the jam and demo parts I have it plugged direct into a Strymon Iridium, with a bit of added reverb.

Sounds wonderful in your hands. It is one I haven't owned. Godin is so consistent. I mostly use a guitar I made myself, that takes several construction design features straight from my collection of Godins. Don't Godin make necks for several other manufacturers? Or is that a myth? I also heard/read several comments about SD making pickups for the old Performance series though they were not branded as such.... that may well be a myth though. Definitely going up in value now but still there are bargains to be had on the used market.
Thanks. I'm not sure about Godin making necks for other guitar manufacturers. SD making pickups for Godin sounds a likely possibility but I'm afraid it's not something I'm aware of. If these ones were made by Godin then they certainly don't need anyone else to make pickups for them!
People should be buying these guitars instead of supporting the Chicoms.
Yep!
Fantastic guitars. For about £300 second hand you get over £1000's worth of guitar that is effortless to play and even has rolled fretboard edges.
I have the grand concert and its world class by every standard.
Yep - Godin always are, in my experience.
I have one in blue burst and also a Summit CT, thet' re my favourite.
Awesome playing! I love Godin guitars! I have a few and have been through several (bought/sold) in the past. Great instruments all around!
Thanks. Yes, I've lost count of how many Godins I've had. Always really good guitars,
you still have this guitar at this moment?
No. It now belongs to one of my pupils.
I’ve got one of these too! My first “real” guitar after my squire. It’s so versatile, and such an outrageous bargain at RRP compared to what that money gets you now. I think they were under £400 when they were on sale. Always liked the fatter neck and it’s slightly odd profile, a better fit than most Strat necks for me. I had forgotten quite how much bite the bridge pickup had. I feel like it handled pretty absurd amounts of gain and remained articulate which can’t be said for my Seymour Duncan PAF / 59 set in another one of my guitars
Thanks for your comments. Yes, they are superb guitars! I am reluctantly having to let this one go again.
