Godin Session Custom 59 RW Limited Edition Coral Blue
Godin’s Tru-Loc tremolo system was designed to ensure maximum tuning stability and comfort while playing. The tremolo bar can be set at any point of comfort in relation to your playing style with a simple adjustment. Tonally, the Stadium ’59 starts out bright, but it certainly doesn’t end there. The Seymour Duncan bridge humbucker is as creamy and big-sounding as you’d hope, with the Godin single-coil neck adding wonderfully crisp highs. Five-way switching allows the pickups to be combined either in series of parallel - a welcome level of increased control over a three-way switch. Add in the Godin High Definition Revoicer, and the end result is a guitar with a level of versatility and playability to belie its simple first impression.
In terms of feel, the fretboard is relatively flat, at a 12” radius. The neck is comfortable, with a rounded heel for ease of access to the higher frets, while body contours allow for comfortable longer stints of playing. 18:1 ratio machines allow for accurate tuning adjustments while .010 gauge strings add some welcome oomf over .009’s.
To complete the package, the Limited Edition Godin Session Custom ’59 in Coral Blue comes supplied with a quality padded Godin gig bag.
