Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

It feels like you're playing a real classical guitar and because it's hollow-body you can also hear yourself very clearly.
But I realize that I wasn't going to use it for classical or solo guitar, but more as part of my Latin-jazz trio, and for such a set-up it wouldn't be the best choice. I consider the action (the length from string to the fretboard) to be too high for me, and the wider neck would slow down my soloing. Also, having less higher frets turned out to be a disadvantage for soloing since I do also solo along these higher frets.
But I'm still giving it a 5-star because for a classical guitar player I think it would be perfect.
They are selling a previous returned product just to collect money for a month. Guitar looks good but electronic was broken. The box has a lot of ups stokers from previous shipments. And refund takes an almost one month. Great business!!!!
I received my Godin 012817 Multiac guitar quickly from Amazon and it arrived in good (brand new) condition. Unfortunately it has intonation issues on a couple of the strings where they go very flat when fretted above the 7th fret. The action is also fairly high, which may contribute to the intonation problem but I’m not sure. I have set up a return/exchange thru Amazon to get a replacement guitar and see if it is any better. If not then I’ll likely take my chances with having a local guitar tech look at it to see if both the action and intonation issues can be solved.
With that said, with a little bit of reverb and some judicious EQ’ing this guitar sounds fantastic through a few different amps that I tried. I was getting some feedback, though, and I’m not sure whether that was due to the reverb setting I was using, or because I was using two amps in stereo, or something inherent to the guitar electronics. I’ll keep an eye on it and follow up this review later.
It’s very fun to play (save for the high string action) and sounds nice. It’s also unique looking, and I think nice looking, which is important to me as it will be hanging on the wall and therefor part of our home decor. I am certainly hoping I am able to make one of these guitars work as far as the playability and intonation issues are concerned. I’ll revisit this review after I receive the replacement guitar.
This is a very sophisticated instrument with excellent technology. The sound is very similar to any acustic classical guitar. Strongly recommended for MIDI recording and very compatible with most synthetizers.
Just a beautiful instrument, comes with an ok gig bag. I had ordered the hardshell case that accompanied the product listing - too bad the guitar doesn't fit the case.
