A modern hollowbody electric with the soul of a 1950s archtop.
The Godin 5th Avenue CW Kingpin II hollow-body electric guitar features two Godin humbucking pickups to deliver classic vintage tone with presence, clarity and a little attitude thrown in for good measure. The 5th Avenue electric offers a true vintage spirit combined with modern playability, more projection and enhanced volume in the low/mids compared to traditional archtop acoustics. The dynamically rich tone of the 5th Avenue archtop makes this sophisticated instrument a dream to play, whether it's alt-country, blues, jazz or rock. Made from Canadian Wild Cherry, the body of the 5th Avenue features a molded arched top and back, as well as an adjustable bridge, classic F-holes, contoured high-gloss headstock, floating pickguard and cream binding.
