Product ReviewsGodin A 6 Ultr Electric Guitar

Highly recommended to acoustic players that want something different.

Very good. You get quality acoustic sound from a small body with more comfort then you would ever think.Very well built.Comes with heavy gauge strings tuned to pitch and has no problem handling that.Plugged in you can crank up very loud with no feedback.Neck pickup sounds like a hollow body Jazz guitar and you can blend the two pickups.I'm very satisfied with this guitar.It's my first Godin and I've owned Gibsons and Martins.This is better and more fun.Read full review...

Godin A6 Ultra Hybrid Guitar

took a chance on the guitar, and i am seriously glad i did. i've owned other godin family guitars and have always loved their necks. same here. sounds loud enough not plugged in...even to give lessons with. amplified, sounds amazing. i have a genz benz shenandoah jr 30w amp that i use it with. having two output jacks comes in handy. i generally run the acoustic output into the amp's effects. humbucker goes into amp's "clean" channel, but thru analog effects first. huge array of sound possibilities with this guitar!!! everytime i play it, i like it more and more. i've been playing about 35 years and have owned just about everything and by everyone. i have no plans on getting rid of this.Read full review...

Well made, Great sound quality

This guitar seems to be well built. It requires very little truss rod adjustment. It has a very nice finish. I've played a fender strat for the last 28 years, so my review is compared to it. The godin a6 ultra is good for unplugged practice, but amped I find it lacking. I may need more time with the guitar to give a better review. Amped the eq is a bit lacking except for the bass end. The neck radius could be greater. I need to try more amp settings and different strings to make a fair review.

(Update: I have changed the strings and tried another amp. The eq is still not impressive but this guitar sounds amazing. I love the size and fit to my large tummy. Great guitar.)Read full review...

The best of both worlds !

I have two A6 Ultras (Koa wood & Black) and one older A6.

I love them !

The neck is easy to play like an electric guitar and body is thin and fairly light. Sound without an amp is loud enough for practice but obviously not the big sound of a big body acoustic. Amplified you have the best of both worlds a humbucker pick up for electric sounds & transducer pick up for your more mellow songs....

Great hybrid guitar ...try one out !Read full review...

Super Flexibility!

Extremely versatile, well crafted guitar. Allows me to switch from acoustic to electric on the fly. Blending the pickups allows me to add different effects and distortion levels through separate amps. I'm very happy with it!Read full review...

Nice hybrid guitar

I bought this guitar hoping to improve the acoustic section of a hybrid guitar I own. I couldn't play it where I live since I couldn't find a Godin dealer. It's a nice guitar but It isn't that much better than the guitar I already have.Read full review...

Arrived in bad shape

Looked like the original strings. Corroded. Neck bowed. Case smells musty, moldy. It does not work as it should. When its plugged in to the jack nearest the strap post only the bridge pickup works, not both as explained in the Godin manual. I am disappointed in this purchase.Read full review...

Great guitar in general and even better at this price

I personally wasn't very familiar with the Godin company but had heard a couple of nice review so I gave it a shot and have been very happy. This guitar is a very solidly made and the sound is exceptional. It doesn't generate the volume of a traditional acoustic because of its size but when connected to an amp it is very bright and responsive. Additionally the humbucker really expands the range of sound that this guitar generates and that is just exceptional.Read full review...

Hard to beat, I wouldn't look at the more expensive T5 anymore

Never put my hand in a more well made & versatile instrument at that price.

I had a Taylor T5 before and I simply prefer this one, mainly because of the acoustic features and also because of the piezzo/magnetic mix possibilitiesRead full review...

Fantastic Hybrid Guitar, and a Great value!

I have been looking for a thin acoustic electric and found this on Ebay. I love everything about the guitar. Both pickups sound great and it's very comfortable to play. Also, thanks much to Godin for making a Left Handed model!Read full review...
