The Godin ACS-SA is a nylon-string acoustic-electric guitar that blends classical guitar concepts with elements of solid body design. The comfortable neck from the Godin Multiac nylon guitar is used here with a chambered silver leaf maple body and cedar top to achieve an affordable synth access guitar. Although the body is chambered, response from the cedar top is more typical of a solid body designs than that of a traditional acoustic guitar. This design results in a guitar that is virtually free of feedback, making the Godin ACS-SA easy to use even when the band gets loud.

The engine in the ACS-SA guitar includes individual transducer saddles powered by a customized preamp system from L.R. Baggs. This system not only produces superb amplified sound, but also produces hexaphonic output through a 13-pin connector enabling direct access to Roland GR-Series guitar synthesizers.
