I was looking for high-end Lasido acoustic guitars in almost every pawn shop of Montreal and fell on this baby. The salesman let it go for 150$ can (about 110$US) with a crappy hard case witch is great since it costs about 370$CAN in stores and is as good (if not better) than any 500$ Alvarez or Yamaha.

The solid cedar top sounds like a charm and i got it new, but it aged within a month, now it sounds almost better than those 25 years old handcrafted guitars we have at school. The mahogany neck plays like a charm and feels incredibly confortable, they say the trust rod helps to make it thiner...

I was looking for high-end Lasido acoustic guitars in almost every pawn shop of Montreal and fell on this baby. The salesman let it go for 150$ can (about 110$US) with a crappy hard case witch is great since it costs about 370$CAN in stores and is as good (if not better) than any 500$ Alvarez or Yamaha.

The solid cedar top sounds like a charm and i got it new, but it aged within a month, now it sounds almost better than those 25 years old handcrafted guitars we have at school. The mahogany neck plays like a charm and feels incredibly confortable, they say the trust rod helps to make it thiner... The sound is awesome as usual with the mahogany/cedar combo: the bases are strong and the mids are fantastic, maybe a little more personality on the highs would have been appreciated, but for a 300$ guitar, it's amazing.

The only bad point is some buzzing on the A string, i'll get that fixed as soon as possible, nothing else to complain about. A solid back would have been appreciated and the action is a bit high, but nothing unbearable. Oh, the tuners seems cheap, but i guess that's necessary to lower the cost.

Solid cedar top, three way laminated mahogany back and sides, thin laquer finish, mahogany head and neck, rosewood fingerboard, i don't know what the bone & saddle are made of, but it isn't either plastic or bone... The rosette isn't inlay but who gves a damn?

Just... Wow!

I bought this guitar at my local shop for about $300. I had been playing guitar for a while and wanted to try to pick up classical guitar.

This guitar has great tone and is a great second instrument if you play electric guitar. I feel that a classical guitar is better for a second instrument than a regular steel string acoustic, and this guitar is perfect. It's affordable, yet playable for a more advanced guitar player.

If you are a more advanced classical guitar player and want a good primary instrument, this might not be the guitar for you. It's somewhat limiting to an advanced classical guitarist, but will suit a beginning classical guitarist.

If you are a more advanced classical guitar player and want a good primary instrument, this might not be the guitar for you. It's somewhat limiting to an advanced classical guitarist, but will suit a beginning classical guitarist.

This is a very high quality instrument and is made to last. It isn't built very well, but it wasn't designed for the advanced player, so I guess you can't really complain.

If you're an advanced classical guitarist, this instrument probably won't suit your needs. But if you're looking for a second instrument, this guitar is definitely worth the money. It's absolutely ideal as a second instrument, and extrememly affordable.

I recommend without hesitation

Electro Acoustics. Made in Canada, 20 frets, micro Godin,
With excellent sound without amp.
Fine materials. Beautiful visual and sonic colors.
very good stability
Truly amazing for its price.

UTILIZATION

Wide handle and good ergonomics for my rather large fingers. Access to acute time is bit difficult for me at first. Its OK

Indeed, as shown in one of my predecessors, attention to small compartment cover that encloses the battery. A little shaky: Handle with care.

SOUNDS

I play blues and classic. With my amp Acus 5 (range 1) blues sounds are excellent. rendering impressive bass.

OVERALL OPINION

I have tried many many many more expensive models and quite comparable....…

No hesitation so for this guitar in good order. In my opinion unbeatable price performance ratio even at the price of nine.

Very good guitar, versatile.

I will not repeat all the features of this beautiful instrument.
Except that in this price range (I can not remember exactly how much I paid because I had a flycase with ...), it's very satisfying.
Beautiful violin, impeccable finish, simple, effective.
Ditto for the electronics.

Excellent grip, slightly muffled sounds dry (cutaway), her powerful, round and warm when plugged into an amp. Good access to acute.
It is often presented as a guitar "hybrid", sufficient to work in different styles, even unexpected for nylon strings.
Latin, jazz, rock, I also used with large distos, at the time I had no electric guitar in hand, the result is stunning!

Latin, jazz, rock, I also used with large distos, at the time I had no electric guitar in hand, the result is stunning!

However, there are two details that I would point out:

-The first level is the varnish of the table, because unlike what you read here and there, and unless I am came across an exception, I find that it is not about the super tough different attacks that can undergo.
It marks very easily, and I had the opportunity to make a significant mark with a helping pick the wrong place. I said that chui not a lumberjack, and I even tend to be really careful with my stuff. My Homeland is rarely out of its nest bush.
In comparison, I have a classic homemade española, more than 10 years of service, sometimes under a bit extreme (much trimballée, travel backpack, to the roots ...), it is sure that 'with the times and situations, she took pets, but at the veneer of the table, except for the specific micro-scratch guitars are not just for decoration, I can say is that nickel, no more trace than that.
I did the test, by applying pressure with the thumb nail, you feel immediately the difference between the two instrumentals. On La Patrie, he did not need to much to mark it, we feel a degree of flexibility / brittleness of the coating, while the Spanish it is hard, it does not budge.

-The second point is at the battery compartment.
I think it is not the most practical, and especially solid, the boxes found on the market today. Especially the little hood that is used to open and close the compartment. It is very fragile, and is maintained by the housing 2 small plastic tabs.
I had the joy of bad break in one of two during a battery replacement.
Again, not a nag chui, but the thing has remained in my fingers.
So I took the opportunity to repair and strengthen.
In fact, I reattached the leg, then I drilled in the axis at the pins that come to nest on the bay, where I handed the cover in position on the housing (removed out of the guitar course) and there have been past a small metal shaft recovered in a stock of dismantled parts of old electronics (it might look a little to the axes used to fasten the bracelet watches).

So now it is solid.
And you do not need to access it as often refined electronics of this guitar ensures a long battery life.

So, that's my little experiment.
Still, I love this guitar, and urges all those who seek a quality instrument, the noble manufacture, taking into account the human and environmental aspects of our time, and that too without breaking the bank.
Mister Godin and his mates have "everything" included.
The quality of their instruments evidenced!
Compliance.
