Godin Fifth Avenue with double buckers
I noticed Amazon has a couple Godin Fifth Avenues with twin humbuckers listed much lower than the usual street price, shipped directly from Amazon. Might be a good deal if someone was looking for one.

Amazon does this every so often - I scored a blonde one with P-90's for just over $600 on Christmas Day 2012 - and if you need a good jazzbox on the cheap you're not likely to do better in this price range...

If you want to know the sales history and prices over an extended timeline for Amazon products then Camel Camel Camel is a useful tool. Scroll down to see the graphic display of Godin with 2 P-90's as an example:
https://camelcamelcamel.com/product/...J6G?cpf=amazon The price fluctuated between $676 and $915 in the last two years in this example. You can sign up free and it will send e-mail notifications for price drops. |

I notice that on the Amazon page where the guitar comparisons are listed, for a slightly lower price, they show one I own, an Ibanez AG95QA. I am very impressed with my Ibby, and feel like they have a "sweet spot" in the archtop market, and should be recognized for same.

Great price. I have the p90 version and it’s very useful and enjoyable to play both plugged in and unplugged.

FYI I'm still a fan: I've owned three basses as well as one of the rare R001 acoustics (think Larrivee L-03R with a Spanish-style rosette and, in my own case, a cedar top - the catalog specified spruce) which could fill a school auditorium without amplification and which I deeply regret selling, I still keep an early-2K's SR405 5-string bass in my stable for when I need those organ-pipe low notes with the worship team, and I'd have a nice old AR300 (or one of its modern-counterpart AR325/420/520 models) in a minute - it's just that the overall field has achieved such a high standard that Ibanez, like Epiphone (which, to their credit, seems to be making some major strides), no longer represents the criterion of fit/finish/tone by which all other hollowbodies in its price bracket are judged...
