The Godin Multiac ACS Lightburst Flame Nylon is a professional level acoustic electric Nylon guitar with both standard 1/4" out, 13-Pin output for Roland GR® synths. Featuring an attractive flame maple top, maple back and high gloss finish, the ACS Nylon is the perfect feedback-free performance instrument for live applications or recording. The Godin Nylon ACS is a great guitar for live performances and recording and features:High gloss flame maple topHigh gloss maple body Mahogany Neck with 16" radius Richlite® composite fingerboard1.9" width at the nutCustomer RMC active electronics with 6 saddle transducers1/4" ouput, 13-pin Roland compatible synth output3 Band active active EQSchaller strap lock buttons7.0 poundsInclude deluxe Godin padded gig bagList Price: $1495Since this ACS lightburst does not use a body mic, the maple body is essentially solid although not of one piece construction. Even with a solid body the weight is only about 7 pounds, and unplugged the volume is reasonable for practice. The thick flame maple top has has a nice figuring that is highlighted beautifully by the lightburst staining.. The standard 1.9" nut width will feel totally familiar to nylon players and the neck profile is a relatively shallow "C", making it easy to reach around for chords or finger picking. The finish and feel of the neck is smooth and comfortable, and the Richlite fingerboard provides nice snap, and is said to provide better note tracking when using a synthesizer. The headstock is nicely detailed and gives the guitar an expensive look.Running through our BBE Acoustimax preamp and straight into an QSC K-10 powered speaker, the Nylon ACS provided very nice note definition and great string-to-string clarity. The sound was detailed without a hint of mud or murkiness, no doubt due to individual bridge saddle transducers. The 3-band EQ seemed to offer greater range than the less expensive Nylon Encore, and even at fairly extreme settings the guitar remained composed without any boom or crackly treble that often accompanies piezo type transducers. Whether single note picking or strumming, each note seems to occupy its own space, and one can only imagine how good it would sound through a good stereo PA system. It even sounds great plugged straight into our Fender Bassman. Like most acoustic guitars, the ACS benefits from some type of aural exciter such as the BBE Sonic Maximizer (Sonic Stomp). The Sonic Maximizer is built into the BBE preamp and does wonders for clarity, imaging and a sense of separation around the notes. It's a must-have for acoustic electrics. The 13-pin Roland compatible-synth output transforms the ACS from mere electrified nylon to personal orchestra. Whether it's piano, saxophone or other synthesized tone, the ability to add an additional instrument and even blend it with the nylon sound makes the ACS Nylon a killer tool for solo performers. Whether you use the synthesizer or not, the natural sounding tone, comfortable fit, and easy playability make the Godin ACS Nylon a totally satisfying high quality instrument.
