Beautifully made in Canada, the Godin 5th Avenue Kingpin P90 is here presented in an evocative Cognac Burst finish. With moulded Canadian Wild Cherry used for the body, Silver Leaf Maple for the neck and Rosewood for the fretboard, this guitar utilises only the most appropriate tonewoods. A single Kingpin P90 Single Coil pickup suits the tonal signature of the body perfectly, resulting in what must be one of the most characterful guitars out there.

Godin 5th Avenue Kingpin P90 in Cognac Burst - Made in Canada
The Godin 5th Avenue brings you back to a time when the archtop acoustic guitar reigned supreme. With the soul of a 1950s archtop, the 5th Avenue is a true vintage spirit of yesterday with today’s level of modern playability. With more projection & volume in the low/mids than traditional acoustic archtop guitars, the dynamically rich tone of the 5th Avenue makes this sophisticated instrument a dream to play, without being a nightmare on your wallet.
The Godin 5th Avenue now makes the dream of owning an affordable North American archtop a reality! From Alt-Country, Delta Blues, Slide, Jazz to Rock, the 5th Avenue can really deliver both acoustically and electrically. The Godin Kingpin P90 single-coil pickup delivers all that classic vintage tone with presence, clarity, and a little attitude thrown in for good measure!
Made from Canadian Wild Cherry, the body of the 5th Avenue features a moulded arched top and back; as well as an adjustable bridge, classic F-holes, contoured high-gloss headstock, floating pickguard, and cream binding. Also, the rustic beauty of its Custom Polished Finish creates a gorgeous satin sheen reminiscent of the 19th century.
