Godin Guitars Are Great
I've had my Metropolis EQ Limited Havana Burst for several months now, but forgot to leave a review. First, I love that Godin uses cedar tops in several of their guitars . . . I just like that tone. When the cedar is paired with the solid mahogany back and sides on the Metropolis, it gives that nice mellow, laid back tone that I like. I don't use picks and the Metropolis responds;… read more finger picking works as well; but you can "bang" on it strumming with a pick and it will be just fine. With the LR Baggs Anthem, whatever sound you're after should be there. Godin guitars, in general, are a true value. The Metropolis can match the quality and sound of guitars costing twice as much or more (in my opinion).
I cheated the system...
This is my first Godin Acoustic Guitar. I cannot say enough good things about the quality and sound of this instrument. I got mine for $899 (its without the EQ) through Josh Kattner and had to wait for about 6 months but it was so worth it. Hands down there is no better acoustic guitar for that money. You can only put it next to >2500$ Martins etc. I also own an HD28 and HD28 12… read more string. Another thing I was pleasantly surprised with is the great projection when plugged in. Thanks again!

Great guitar
I'm not really a big review guy. I just can't say enough about this guitar.I love Godin guitars, so I was really excited about The Metropolis line. I took a shot and went for it. Wow. This has been my go to live guitar since I bought it. The LR Baggs Anthem sounds great.I have quite a number of acoustics including Taylors and Gibsons. This guitar definitely gives them much competition… read more in my opinion. Thanks as always to my sales rep Mark Bruhn, who has become a good friend over the years.
