Description: This is one of the nicest playing guitars that I have had the pleasure of playing. Outstanding feel, tone and look. You can make this little beauty sound off in many voices. Godin’s original Radiator launched back in 1999 as a very retro-styled model – the antithesis of the more complex dual- and three-voice (including synth access) electrics that the Canadian company was becoming known for.It used the elongated single-cut SD shape, pretty similar to today’s LGXT, with a bolt-on 24-fret maple neck, while the fairly heavily chambered body was covered with pearloid, including a full-face scratchplate, creating that retro vibe and probably inspired by certain Magnatone electrics from the 50s. Along with a string-through bridge with six L-shaped saddles, it featured a pair of retro-y Rickenbacker-style single coils with dual volumes and a master tone all mounted on its plastic front. The pick-ups are kind of low gain p-90's sounding - but they do get an authentic old school blues tone with a little amp distortion - I was amazed at what a cool, blues-harp. Little Walter type tone I could get from the bridge pup. Godin is absolutely the best-kept secret in affordable, North American made quality guitars. I've had 3, still have one. Loved them all.
