5-way switch, volume & tone control Beskrivelse The Freeway Classic is the
first double cutaway design by Godin in several years. In spite of the
tremendous success of the single cutaway design featured throughout the Godin
line, there has always been a contingent of hard-core, double-cutaway
enthusiasts encouraging us to do something for them. With that in mind we went
to work on the Freeway Classic. The basic formula is classic Godin, versatile,
blues/rock gigging machine with ‘boutique guitar’ build-quality at a blue-collar
price. Godin’s rock maple necks are known throughout the guitar industry for
outstanding feel and boundless sustain. The 25 ½” scale neck on the Freeway
features Godin’s ergo-cut shape and medium jumbo frets. Neck stability is
insured by a double-action truss system capable of adding and removing relief in
the neck. The body consists of a center block of silver-leaf maple with light
poplar wings. Silver-leaf maple is an excellent tone wood with a weight and
density similar to mahogany. The warm tone of the silver-leaf provides a perfect
compliment to the rock maple neck. To ensure that we get the most from this
potent combination, each neck and body are joined with a perfect wood-to-wood
connection—free of paint or glue—that delivers maximum neck/body energy
transfer. The sound of the silver-leaf maple comes at a price—it’s heavy! To
balance the guitar and achieve a comfortable weight the silver leaf core is
flanked with light poplar wings. This ultimately produces a comfortably light
guitar with ‘heavy guitar’ resonance. The Godin humbucker-single-humbucker
pickup configuration makes the most of excellent acoustic response of the
Freeway. A double 5-way switch along with volume and tone controls supports the
pickups.
