A Modern Approach to Nylon Guitars by Godin
The G-Tour is aimed at guitarists seeking the tonal color of nylon strings without sacrificing the playing comfort gained from an electric guitar. Godin applies its lutherie expertise to a hollow-body instrument designed to be practical, stable, and immediately usable live. This version stands out with its Limited Arctik Blue finish and Canadian manufacturing.
Who Is It For, and In Which Styles?
Ideal for electric guitarists wanting to incorporate a nylon texture into their set, the Godin G-Tour is also well suited for intermediate musicians looking for an easy-to-play nylon guitar. It performs particularly well in pop, variety, Latin, jazz, ambient music, and rhythmic accompaniment, with a clear advantage when switching quickly between instruments.
The Sound
The cedar soundboard provides a warm response, soft attack, and rich midrange, highly appreciated in fingerstyle playing. The fan bracing contributes to a more "nylon" vibration and good projection despite the compact size, while helping to contain feedback on stage. The use of maple for the body and neck promotes precision and definition, while the rosewood fingerboard and bridge complete the setup with a natural playing feel and balanced response. On the amplification side, the under-saddle pickup delivers a clear and usable attack, and the EPM Q-Discrete preamp allows quick adjustment of the overall character via volume and tone controls.
