Godin's Twangiest 5th Avenue Archtop Yet
The Godin 5th Avenue Uptown T-Armond blends old-school archtop style with modern performance features to meet today's players where they live. A pair of TV Jones T-Armond "Dyna" pickups gives this beautiful archtop that coveted bygone-era bite and twang. You'll be greeted with rich tone and powerful projection the moment you pick up this ultra-light archtop; its Canadian wild cherry top, back, and sides are full of soul and stage appeal. Plugged in, the 5th Avenue Uptown T-Armond exhibits inspiring depth, clarity, and kick, with more than a touch of that vintage sparkle and chime. At the bridge position, a genuine Bigsby trem equips the 5th Avenue Uptown T-Armond for haunting chordal and melodic textures to deep scoops and wild dives — all without wrecking your tuning. If you're looking for a full-featured archtop with style and performance to match, be sure to check out the Godin 5th Avenue Uptown T-Armond from Sweetwater.

Vintage class and modern precision

The result is a guitar that looks, plays, and sounds like it wandered straight out of the early mid-20th century, but is built to the tight tolerances only twenty-first-century technology can offer.
