Godin - Presentation Q1T

 The Godin Presentation QIT features a stunning select pressure tested solid cedar top which provides the guitar with astonishing levels of stiffness and rigidity. This means that the instrument is granted amazing durability and is guaranteed to last you for years to come. The solid cedar top is not only wonderfully sturdy, but brings maximum harmonic vibration too. The process of pressure testing results in a tone that encompasses massive amounts of projection, resonance, and clarity - ideal for finger-style players.

A brilliant accompaniment to cedar, the rosewood back and sides offer a beautifully balanced tone. Rosewood has the ability to soften any piercing frequencies, allowing you to sculpt a sound in which every note can shine through. The custom polished finish then ensures you will look absolutely divine with this guitar. By only having a thin coat of polish, unlike standard classical guitars, the wood is allowed to breathe and vibrate freely - another superb tonal attribute.

A meticulously designed neck

Godin have scrutinised every detail of this guitar, even inside the neck. The double-function truss rod system which is mounted within the mahogany neck is an innovative feature, as truss rods are not usually found on classical guitars. Its function on the Godin Presentation QIT allows for a slimmer neck profile - an enticing feature in itself as it increases playability. This clever truss rod system brings stability and extraordinary comfort. Better still, the use of mahogany for the neck improves the guitar's robustness and tonal capabilities even more. Mahogany's focus on the lower to mid range frequencies teams perfectly with the bright qualities of the body, creating a full and resonant tone.

Innovative electronics

The addition of Godin's Q1T electronics provide this guitar with the means to deliver an exceptional performance in the studio or on stage. This streamlined setup features a responsive saddle-transducer and an easy-to-use preamp section mounted to the side of the guitar. Operating this preamp takes no time at all; the volume, treble, and bass controls allow for on-the-fly tweaking and a sound that is distinctive to you. The transducer and EQ section have been contoured to enhance the rich characteristics of your tone, providing full amplification of your sound for a powerful playing experience. A built-in tuner is also included, ensuring your strings remain perfect in any environment.
