Godin A11 Glissentar 2000 - natural

Includes original black Tolex hardshell case with case key , warranty card & truss rod wrench.

Godin's Glissentar came about in the in the mid 2000's - offering up an instrument that had never been seen before. Fun and creative, especially when recording. At its core, a guitarist can easily transition to this instrument, sharing familiar tuning and fingerings - but the Glissentar sports 11 strings, all but the lowest string double coursed, with a fretless ebony fingerboard. Sonically, it offers a unique Eastern inspired sound in a classical hybrid electric format. Get your creative juices flowing.

The body is constructed with a chambered silver leaf maple body with a solid cedar top. Comfortable, it sits much like a thin electric guitar. Familiar mostly double coursed bridge, it is outfitted with an LR Baggs Ribbon transducer and custom pre amp. A standard output jack, this can plug into any typical amplifier system, and features a fairly straight forward slider system with a master volume & basic 3-Band EQ.
The neck is designed with a familiar 25.5" scale length, with a crossover 1 7/8" nut width. A thin C profile, it feels comfortable for those accustomed to classical or steel string guitars. This is strung with nylon strings - tied at the bridge pin, with their classical inspired tuners at the peg head. It plays easily with low action - the neck bolted on for easy future adjustments if ever necessary.

Condition: the case's metal parts have some rust. Said case is rock solid and fitted to this instrument. The instrument's top shows 3 dings- 2 are through the finish- see the pics. The frets are in perfect shape!! (just kiding) We plugged her in and played a few of our fav A-Tonal ragga rock tunes. This thing is more fun than a AR15 in a china shop.
