With no Amp it sounds good, but needs help to achieve an acoustic sound with. That being said the sound to me is unique. I give it an ok.

I have been dealing with feedback issues when playing venues with speakers and gear close together even with a sound hole cover. This guitar does not feed back and sounds more acoustic than similar guitars. So far so good.

It is incredible to have the possibility of carrying only one guitar when in reality there are 2, both the electric and acoustic sounds are very clean, the neck is easy to play, very smooth, love my Godin ????.

I had hand surgery for arthritis and needed a guitar that gave me acoustic capabilities since my hands can't work with an acoustic anymore. This guitar gets huge points for that. Unfortunately it loses points for all the problems I'm having with it. The pickup fell inside the guitar after a screw just came out randomly. Godin quickly supplied me with replacement screws to fix the problem. Now the acoustic jack is either making loud pop sounds or none at all. The electric jack works fine. I'm thinking I need to either do a return or maybe try a new guitar.

Godin A6 Ultra is REAL

Product Review
Performing 250+ acoustic shows a year over several decades has a taken a toll on my left shoulder, elbow and wrist, resulting in some pretty painful degenerative arthritis. I LOVE the tone of a larger body acoustic but regardless of the strap height and positions I've tried playing in, the damage is done, and I was starting to think "so am I". I tried a Taylor T5 for its form factor and though much more comfortable to play, it sounded horrible. I could not get past the plastic tone and sound quality was not something I was willing to sacrifice. A friend recommended the Godin A6 to me, and although I had heard positive reviews of the guitars, the aesthetic had always been unappealing to me - until I saw the Denim Blue Flame. OK, now you've caught my eye, but what about the tone? I saw some solid YouTube demos so I ordered it and gave it a trial run. When it arrived, I instantly noticed how good the guitar felt. The neck suited me well, it was light weight and the form factor, like an electric, took the stress on my damaged joints away. After tone tweaking with my L.R. Baggs Session and EQ pedals, and finding the sweet spot blend between the bridge piezo and humbucker in the neck, I had finally stumbled on a really sweet, warm tone. The A6 has its own voice for sure, so if you're expecting a Dreadnought tone, you'll likely be disappointed. That said, after getting familiar with the options on the A6, the guitar can absolutely produce a convincing, well balanced acoustic voice. Having used it now on a dozen or so gigs, it has revealed itself as a total keeper that will hopefully keep me gigging for decades more. Thanks Godin!

Product Review
I've been playing guitar professionally for over a decade, and owned just as many guitars. The majority of my paying work is solo acoustic at small bars and restaurants, but occasionally I get to rock with a band on a big stage.
I don't like full sized acoustics and I enjoy fx pedals when I loop, so many times I've been tempted to just use a clean electric at solo gigs - cause it's more "me"
The A6 is (for me) the perfect middle man. The acoustic tones are perfect when I'm alone, and because there's no sound hole for feedback it can be distorted. Any combination of piezo and humbucker sounds great depending on what you need.
I was lucky enough to grab the Denim Blue finish and couldn't be happier, it's very handsome in person. I've had shoulder issues because I perform so many nights a week & this guitar looks like it would be Les Paul weight - it's totally not. The chambered body makes it very light.
The A6 gets an A+

I was looking for a more affordable option to a Taylor T5, and I came across this little number. Sounds great through my Fender amp, and equally through a standard PA. Versatile, and responsive. You won’t be disappointed.

Product Review
This is a four instead of five star review because I’ve not yet explored the A6’s dual input capability. If it’s as great as the rest of the guitar, I it will earn the fifth star.
The A6 was a gift from my wife, but I’d been looking at it for months. My primary guitar has been a Taylor CE410. I love it, but back and shoulder strain have been making extended playing somewhat difficult. 3-hour gigs are typically followed by 3AM ibuprofen.
Yesterday, I played my first gig with the A6. The light weight and thin body are winners. No shoulder or back pain! In this regard, the guitar gets an A+.
I achieved a sound I’m really happy with by opening the acoustic volume to almost full and the humbucker volume at almost 1/3. I’m running the board into a non-powered Alto mixer to An powered Alto Trouper. The guitar loves reverb. I got happy with the sound with large hall reverb about 60% The sound isn’t fully acoustic or electric. All I can say is it’s really cool. I love it.

Your general opinion of this product.
I was looking for a guitar that had a feel of an electric and the sound of an acoustic. Found this one with the Koa top used in a local shop. Tried it in the store. So-so sound, but action and neck felt great. I left it there and thought about it overnight. Went back, tried it again, still felt terrific, but sound was fair. Came home without it and did some research online. Went back again and bought it on a 'trial' basis. Plugged it into my gear, tweaked it out and it is in one word 'phenomenal'! I love it. Does exactly what I wanted it to.
It is an exceptional instrument. I looked it over from top to bottom, inside out, and TRIED to find a defect so that I would have a reason NOT to buy it. Binding, wood, neck, electrons, all top notch. Made in Canada and USA, and every bit as quality as those other USA guitar makers. Solid, well made and well thought out. Finish was perfect.
It has the neck feel of an SG, the body feel of a Telecaster and the tone of anything you can think of. Stereo outputs to split the piezo and the hum bucker, dual controls, perfect balance, not too heavy, neck and frets impeccable.
Took a little trial and error and about 2 hours of fooling around with it, but I can get everything I need out of it. A nice acoustic guitar sound from the UST and a nice Les Paul sound from the hum bucker. Blending the two can make any sound in between, and even a tele sound with some adjustments. The hum bucker is much hotter than the piezo, but with just a touch of hum bucker blended with the piezo, makes a SWEET acoustic sound.
I bought it used, but there is no way to adjust the bridge, it is fixed ala acoustic bridge. The action was perfect though, and is a joy to play.
Flawless. Like a mirror. I would have preferred a high gloss finish on the back of then neck, but that is just my preference. The rest of the guitar is super high gloss and not a flaw anywhere. Binding and all fittings really well done.
Too new for me to tell, but it seems solid and worthy of a professional who uses it for a living. I am disappointed at the quality coming from another well known guitar maker whose name begins with Gib... so I decided to try something completely different than I ever had before, and this Godin made me a believer in guitars other than the 'big three'. Well done, Godin!
