The Godin Stadium HT is Godin's hot take on the classic T-style design. With a rugged ashtray bridge and richly voiced single coil pickups, it offers the flexibility and style that Godin does so well at a very competitive price for a North American guitar. It features a contoured Canadian basswood body, 25.5" scale, and 12" radius maple neck for a modern twang machine that easily traverses blues, country, rock and beyond.
Made in the Canada, the Godin Stadium HT features:
- Matte Black finish on Canadian basswood, 7.5 pounds
- 25.5" scale 12" radius tinted maple neck, 1-5/8" nut width
- Rosewood fretboard
- 1 GS-3 single coil neck pickup
- 1 Godin Custom Cajun single coil pickup
- Godin designed T-Style Ashtray bridge
- Master Volume and Tone controls
- 3-way pickup switch
- Schaller strap locks
- Deluxe Godin padded gig bag
The Godin Stadium HT gets it name from the popular body shape and rock-solid bridge assembly. The inspiration behind the guitar is rather obvious but Godin elevates the platform with the comfortably contoured Basswood body and their dynamic single coil pickups. The neck pickup is the GS-3 which some Godin fans will remember from the 3-pickup Passion model. It may be more of a Strat style neck pickup but we wouldn't change a thing. The oversized, pole pieces offer a rich, smooth tone that is easily shaped by your picking dynamics. It is bouncy and warm in the low end with glassy highs that will produce crystalline overtones when you give it some oomph. The Custom Cajun bridge pickup provides classic country spank with a beefier midrange and less sharp top end than a traditional Tele pickup. Overall the GS-3/Cajun pairing deliver traditional T-tones with just enough extra spice to help them punch through the mix and drive your favorite pedals. The lightweight Basswood has a response similar to Alder, but is lighter in weight.
As the name states, the Godin Stadium HT uses their compensated T-bridge using 3 hefty adjustable bridge saddles with a specially beveled ashtray plate that gives your hand a place to rest without getting in the way. We think this is a good move, and the string-through fixed bridge helps with sustain and low end response.
The Godin formula of value and features is a compelling one, and Godin Stadium HT is a winner in our book. You owe it to yourself to check out a Godin.
