PLAYER'S PERSPECTIVE

We're excited to bring you this beautiful Godin 5th Avenue Night Club hollowbody! Godin has done a great job at offering high-end features and vintage looks to players at a price far less than you would expect of an instrument of this caliber and appearance. This Indigo Blue example is by far one of the classiest instruments we've had in at this price point.

Being a full hollowbody, this guitar is incredibly resonant, and its acoustic voice is clear and warm with its Canadian wild cherry body and maple neck. Strummed chords especially are just divine, and this is an extremely fun guitar to jazz comp and play rhythm on. Single-note lines are great as well, of course. Electric tones are just as good, featuring a single TV Jones Classic "filtertron" humbucker in the neck position. This pickup is responsible for so many classic tones dating back to the 1950s and is instantly recognizable the moment you plug in. Its bright, jangly voice with a versatile EQ profile pairs amazingly with the volume and tone knobs. Rounding out the feature set is a Bigsby vibrato that stays in tune beautifully and allows for a wide variety of playing styles and guitar acrobatics on a relatively simple platform.

For a gorgeous hollowbody guitar that looks, plays, and sounds well above its price point, the Godin 5th Avenue is a strong choice that also manages to be a unique option you don't see as often.

MANUFACTURER'S DESCRIPTION

The 5th Ave Night Club can be described by one word: Classy. Adorned in a stunning Indigo Blue finish, this guitar is not only a treat to look at but has awesome playability and a rich tone that matches its beauty. No detail is spared with this model – from the all-high gloss body, the tortoise brown pick guard, and the vintage style volume and tone knobs. The single TV Jones Classic pickup is perfectly suited for Jazz and Blues and the inclusion of a Bigsby tremolo bridge lets you take this guitar to a variety of musical directions.

Overall Condition

Godin is very picky on its product quality, a little discolored tiny spot or blemish or little finish run on the finish of the guitar. A lot of times we can't even tell what is the difference between these and the A-stock guitars, but despite any blemishes, they sound, feel, and look amazing!
