    Para mim o Godin é mais equilibrado, os médios e agudos soam melhor junto com a mix toda. O fender me lembra o som de uma telecaster é muito bom também. No final é questão de preferência pessoal. Eu gosto mais do som do Godin no questão de som de violão. Já para utilizar com distorção e solos como se fosse uma guitarra o som do fender é mais próximo de uma guitarra, médios mais agressivos, muito bom. Parabéns pelo demonstrativo.

    Thanks for your comment mate! I quite agree with you, it seems to me that the Godin cuts better through the mix, and the Fender sounds a little fuller by itself, speaking about acoustic tones. The electric tones are both a little weird, the Godin seems a little weak but more natural sounding, the Fender is a little too aggressive when distorted... Again , as you said, it' a matter of personal preferencies

    Dear OP. I want to do this with my LP junior project. The control cavity is very small and I don’t think it’s feasible to squeeze an active piezo system in there. What I’m really interested in is how will the passive piezo sound straight into an amp??? Is there enough signal strength across the frequency range to get at least a slightly decent acoustic sound?

  • @SymoneJem
    @SymoneJem2 ай бұрын

    You are right, you can't fit the preamp and the battery of the active piezo system in the control cavity. And what you are hearing is the actual passive piezo through my sound card and my daw. The signal definetly has enough strenght, and btw if you want you can use some acoustic preamp on your pedal board. I would recommend to not send your piezo signal to an amp ( unless is an acoustic amp) , you better send it to a mixer and then to the PA.

    I'm a full time professional acoustic soloist. I have a Guild S7CE Peregrine, a Taylor T5 Custom, and a Godin A6 Ultra denim blue flame, among 14 other instruments. I use a TC Electronic BodyRez pedal to liven the transducers on all three. A good friend who recently passed away had a "Acoustasonic Stratocaster". I hated it. It was compressed, and there's a weird latency with the digital modeling built into it's circuitry. And it looked like something from a cartoon, not a serious instrument. The Godin is superior in every way. The humbucker is way too hot to blend well, but if you bury it deep (low strings the deepest) it does better. Install a clean 20K or less pickup and you can really get it going. The Godin is made by REAL luthiers with the finest woods (they do not abide "green" principles and actually give you GOOD wood). and the craftsmanship is obvious. The Fender is made largely by low income local minorities in CA. The video of the factory will tell you what you need to know. Not that they cannot make a decent product, but they will not object to a substandard instrument leaving the line. They are EMPLOYEES, not LUTHIERS. These two guitars are not even in the same caliber. Godin, hands down.

    I think that the Godin is probably the better instrument but the acoustic modeling in the Fender can't be understated. It can give the gigging musician a much bigger/more natural acoustic sound. I've got a Martin GPC Aura GT and the fishman aura system in that guitar models different mic's and makes a HUGE difference on the sound and sounds much better on stage compared to just the peizo transducer. I blend it about 80 or 90% Aura system and the rest peizo. I want something smaller and more comfortable to play as well as a faster neck/lower action as I'm primarily a rock electric player and our band fills in with acoustic shows on the side. The Martin certainly sounds fantastic but it's uncomfortable to play after a few hours into the night. I think the Jazzmaster acoustisonic, the A6 Ultra and the Taylor T5Z pro are the 3 I'm looking at. They're all in that $1500~2000 price point.

    If you play in a band i think the Godin cuts trough the mix better than the Acustasonic, you can hear it also from this video. But if you like the Aura modeling, you will like the acoustasonic. I think both acoustic imagines in the Aura F1 and in the Acoustasonic models are taken from the Fishman Aura Spectrum. For what concernes the Acoustasonic it is declared and well known. Btw the acoustasonic's tone works better when played alone or in all acoustic ensembles. And it is less easy to play and less reliable than the Godin

    @@SymoneJem My playing is with one acoustic bass and our singer who occasionally plays acoustic rhythm and every now and then our drummer will bring a cajone. I've heard some demos now of the Fishman Aura Spectrum box and it sounds like it does something similar to what my Martin's Aura system does (though the Aura system in the martin models actual microphones vs specific guitars) and makes the pezio sounds way more palatable which opens up my options (if I want to use the pedal) to any instrument with a pezio transducer saddle pickup. It doesn't surprise me that with Larry Fishman making the Acoustisonic electronics that he's taking that pezio signal and probably has crammed a stripped down version of the aura pedal into the built-in electronics. If I'm going to go pezio only, the Kiesel Craig Chaquico is another one that I've actually really liked the look of for easily the last 20 years as an old school Carvin player and it's right there in line with the price of the Fender and Taylor T5. For playablity, I read the opposite.. that the fender is faster and more like an electric than the Godin.

    @@FastRedPonyCar Take in account that the Godin is sold with electric strings , and the Acoustasonic with acoustic strings and those kind of strings are the best for these models.. That means that you can play bendings way more easier with the Godin , as you would do with an electric guitar. With the Acoustasonic you have a wound G string, bendings are very hard to do. Plus if you put light strings on the acoustasonic you can experience low output on the high E string. Even the setup they are sold with is very different, to get an "electric guitar" feel with the acoustasonic you have to adjust bot the truss rod and the tilt screw, the godin is ready to go.

    Thanks man! No noise issues whatsoever with the passive pickup. It really does not matter the level of the two outputs, you hopefully are not sending the two signals to the same place, so you can adjust the two volumes After. You should send the piezo signal to a mixer or a soundcard as i did, and the magnetic sound to an amp or similar.

    thanks for your comment man! The Acoustasonic is more good looking, the tone are appealing, but as time pass by, i find it way less reliable than the Godin. And yes, being able to change sounds via midi would be a very usable feature

    @@eddy4022 yes, when you put it into a distorted amp with a boost in front of it, sound like you heard it, light distortion solo tone. actually , it reacts to distortion less than a regular humbucker, it gets a little less distorted. about the first question you made, the godin doesn 't have a built in overdrive.

    Quick question, have you got the passive piezo wired direct to the output, or are you running through the volume and tone pot etc, so that the sound is affected by the capacitor and pots? Sounds great.

  • @SymoneJem
    @SymoneJem Жыл бұрын

    Hi Conor, it is wired straight to the output jack, no volume and tone involved. It was meant to be processed on my pedalboard with a line selector sending the piezo signal to an eq and a reverb , then to the PA, in a live situation

    @@SymoneJem perfect dude. I appreciate the information as I was unsure about a few things. I'm getting a harley benton strat, removing all electronics, and installing a blank pickguard, and the ghost piezo passive, so it's an electro acoustic only. Not needing to add the tone etc will make it look so much cleaner lol It'll save me a bit of money too not buying the graphtech preamp, as I have a boss gx100 multieffects which I was assuming would do a similar job, so I'm glad your able to use your existing pedals to do it. Really helped clear up alot of purchase anxiety man, thanks :)

    I have the A6 ultra in koa the instrument is very precise easy to play and frets perfectly the intonation is dead nuts on... I like the reviews I'm getting from the Fender and I've held one at the music store they seem to be very well made Out of all the reviews I have seen no one ever mentions the intonation.. I would really like to have the Tele version of the Fender It would make a wonderful addition to the collection.. Lastly in my opinion the Godan is going to be the superior instrument... The Fender is certainly making a mark and striking a positive note with a wide variety of players... Have fun play often enjoy life..

    Hi Lance, thanks for your comment! The A6 is a very good instrument, that is worth the price it sells for. The Acoustasonic is very appealing , the look is very good, but in my opinion it has too much issues to be a reliable instrument. About the intonation, guitars are imperfect instruments, btw if a guitar has good frets, a good setup and fairly comfortable action , intonation is usually accettable. Btw both instruments have compensated nut, they are intonated as an acoustic guitar can be.

    @@SymoneJem Oh yeah for sure I get it the intonation on an acoustic is usually only ballpark at best but if it's too extreme it can be a deal breaker for me... I was however very surprised with my A6 when I checked it the thing is next to perfect and it plays that way across-the-board... The Fender is a d*** fine instrument I don't think I have to fear any of those type of issues I would gladly own one and enjoy playing it very much.. Out of the 3 body shapes they make the Tele is most appealing.... let the shopping began.

    @@lancerains4185 well if your Godin's intonation is that good, it means that is very well made and very well setup. A very good thing to have for shure. About the Acoustasonic , the issues are vey common, if i had the chance when i bought mine, i would have bought the player series one. More fair price, no charging problems, same look. btw, if you want one, i recommend you to try it before. different models have different tone available also.
