Review: Excellent quality, good price. Very comfortable neck great playability
Review: Best 12-String I've ever played. (I've owned 4 +) Recently I returned a new Rickenbacker 12-string costing 3X as much as my A-12 Godin. (I prefer Godin's thin satin neck feel and playability over Ricki's deeper hi-gloss design ) The Godin's action and intonation was spot on , right out of the box. It sounds a lot like the Guild 12-String I owned in 1974...bright- wooden instrument sound..like the sound from the Roof Top Singers or New Christy Minstrels. It holds tune very well. I recently ordered some Flatwound La Bella strings which I suspect will soften the bright sparkly sound towards a more "electric" voicing....we'll see. I like both qualities. Build and finish of the A-12 (like all Godins) is equivalent to guitars costing many hundreds $ more.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by A***R on 4 August 2020*

Had to send the first one back, as the 9v battery only lasts for hours, not even days. When I emailed a Godin rep, he said "this is a defect, it happens now and again. Probably the preamp needs replacing." The supplier, guitarVault, can't even assure me the next one arriving won't have the same problem! Still, the guitar is a dream to play, hands down the easiest to navigate leads on. I've been playing a Taylor 150e for 7 years on a solo gig, so it's an interesting comparison of the DI-ed sound, which is very important on my gigs: I actually prefer the sound of the Taylor, but I can approach that sound with the Godin A12. Unplugged, the A12 has a much more brash sound and is louder to the player; this makes it difficult to know if my tone adjustments tame the sound. So the 2nd A12 is coming tomorrow, 8/4, and I'll play a gig and let you know if this 2nd one has the battery depletion problem. 8/5/20: The 2nd A12 arrived with a dead battery. So I will assume ALL A12s have this defect. I may return this and wait for them to fix this across the board. I will call Godin rep, 8/6 - 8/7: I sent the 2nd one back, and Godin says they will drop-ship me one w/o the problem soon. ***GuitarVault has been GREAT about the whole thing. Great seller!*** Godin indicated the older A12s had the problem. 8/11/20: One final entry then I'm out...Godin replies that they don't have any A12s to drop-ship so GuitarVault will refund me. I really want a working A12 dangit! ..but will wait. I will rate it to 3 stars for it's easy playing
