Robert Godin

For over thirty years, Robert Godin has been pushing the bound-
aries of both acoustic and electric guitar design.  Robert’s innova-
tions in semi-acoustic guitars, multi-voice instruments, and synth
access have made Godin an industry leader in all of these cate-
gories. Godin’s ongoing commitment to value and innovation has
never been more evident than in the current model lineup.

All Godin guitars are assembled in Berlin, New Hampshire from
parts crafted in Godin's original facility in La Patrie, Quebec
Canada.
