Any Thoughts On The Godin Doyle Dykes?
Not sure if its classed as an acoustic guitar really, anyone own or tried one, any thoughts?

Okay, I just looked it up. It's $500.0 USD more than the regular Multiac. Most signature guitars carry a premium price with few if any differences except the player's name on it or in the model number. I will leave it at that. |

There is a music store here in my city that sells high end Taylors, Martins and they are also a licensed Godin dealer. Maybe I'll go see if they have one hanging up to try out. This shop doesn't care if you try out any of their stuff. I have tried out guitars there worth more than some some Hyundai's.
Here's a short demo of it. It's not something that interests me though. |

To the OP: try one. It is a nice guitar and definitely different than other multiacs. Doyle also uses his signature GHS PB acoustic custom lights on his. |

Robkay,
You might find this video explaining the pickups and pre-amp informative. I forgot to post this earlier. https://youtu.be/Efk1iBamNVY Hope this helps answer some of your questions. |

HI Robkay,

I play a Godin A6 Ultra on gigs, a similar instrument to the DD at about half the price. The main distinction I see is that mine has a UST that can be blended with a magnetic pickup while the DD blends the UST with a mic. I have not played the DD but like mine it is meant to be played plugged in and therefore won’t sound like much unplugged. My A6 is a fantastic gigging instrument that I wish I had years ago. If the price tag of the DD frightens you, as it would me, I encourage you to explore the A6. However, I am sure if you decide on the Doyle Dykes, you won’t be disappointed.

Hopefully you can. I'm pretty impressed with it.
