Godin xtSA
Summary: A jack-of-all-trades and master of all of them, the xtSA’s incredible sound power begins with three distinct voices: electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and synth. The xtSA delivers electric sounds via the Godin humbucker-single-humbucker pickup configuration and thanks to a special 5-way switch setup, humbucker tones co-exist with split-coil sounds in the second and forth positions. Turn down the electric output and raise the volume on the LR Baggs transducer saddles and the xtSA becomes an ‘acoustic’ guitar. As with all of Godin synth-ready instruments, a built-in 13-pin connector provides direct access to all Roland GR-Series synths as well as most other 13-pin devices.

Cosmetics: This guitar is in great condition. It has light surface scratches on the body. There is a bigger scuff on the back of the body that doesn’t go into the finish (See Photos Please). There are a couple very small scuffs on the back of the neck. There is one small indentation on the top of the body that can be seen in a reflection. The frets are in great shape. All the electronics have been tested and are working properly.

The neck is straight, the truss rod is fully functional, and the action has been setup low and comfortable.
