The Freeway SA (Synth Access) takes all of the versatility of the Freeway Classic and adds synth/computer access via a built-in 13-pin connector that can be used with most guitar-to-MIDI converters. The Ghost pickup system feeds the 13-pin output, using a proprietary harmonic dampening system that results in superb tracking. Godin's pioneering designs in guitars with synth access have led the industry and the Freeway continues the tradition establishing new benchmarks for response, ease-of-use and affordability.

Maple/Poplar Body

The Freeway's 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 you 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.

Rock Maple Neck

Godin's rock maple necks are known throughout the guitar industry for outstanding feel and boundless sustain. The 25-1/2" 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.

Godin-Designed Pickups

The Godin humbucker-single-humbucker pickup configuration makes the most of excellent acoustic response of the Freeway. A 5-way switch along with volume and tone controls supports the pickups, so you can dial in any number of tones you're after.
