We have been becoming more heavily involved with Canada-based Godin guitars in the last few years, and were very pleased to get a personal tour of their new products by none other than Robert Godin. It was refreshing to speak with the owner of a company who really knows his products, and is clearly involved with all aspects of design and production.
