The original Multiac Nylon SA combines cutting edge acoustic guitar design with state-of-the-art on-board electronics and synth access. The 25-1/2" scale, the 1 7/8" nut width, and the fingerboard radius—a slight 16"—all contribute to an easy feel for steel string players to adapt to. This has become the instrument of choice for guitarists of all genres looking to incorporate nylon string guitar sounds in their music.

Godin's Multiac Series

The Multiac models represent the créme de la créme of the acoustic/electric guitar world. Whether you're recording, performing or just looking for an incredible plugged-in sound, these instruments deliver superb results. Several of these guitars are nylon string and the remaining are steel string. The various models are also distinguished by the two electronic systems used in the Multiac series guitars. The RMC-equipped Multiacs include synth access capabilities, and the Duet models feature custom dual source systems by L.R. Baggs.

RMC Polydrive preamp system for added feedback suppresion and a wealth of different tones.

Send a standard 1/4-inch output or use the 13-pin connector with Roland or other guitar synthesizers.

Classical Concepts, Solid Body Design

This guitar blends classical guitar concepts with elements of solid body design. With an incredibly comfortable Mahogany neck, a chambered Mahogany body, and a Spruce top, it delivers plenty of resonance. And because the body is chambered, thisinstrument is virtually free of feedback, making it easy to use even when the band gets loud.

The neck holds an ebony fretboard with 22 medium nickel frets and offset dot inlays, and thanks to the deep cutaway you can actually access the higher ones.

Synth Access

The Multiacs that use the RMC Polydrive system can be recognized by the individual transducer saddles under each string. This system not only produces superb amplified sound, but also produces a hexaphonic output through a 13-pin connector, which provides these guitars with direct access to Roland GR-Series synthesizers. The key to the exceptional synth tracking of the Multiac lies not just in the electronics but also in the carefully selected and balanced blend of different wood used in its design. All of the materials used are the result of extensive prototype testing to achieve the best possible combination of plugged-in guitar sound and synth tracking.

Output Section

All of the Multiac SA models are equipped with two outputs. The 1-/4-inch phone output works with a regular guitar cord. The 13-pin connector provides hexophonic (a separate signal for each string) output for guitar synth devices.
