The Godin 050963 5th Avenue Uptown Custom gives you that old-school archtop style and sound with enough performance features to meet modern players where they live.

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, finished in a deep Havana Brown, are full of soul and stage appeal. Plugged in, the 5th Avenue Uptown Custom issues vintage-tinged jazz and blues to PAF-style sweetness and heat from its Seymour Duncan '59 humbucker and Godin Kingpin P90 pickup complement. At bridge position, a genuine Bigsby trem equips the 5th Avenue Uptown Custom for haunting chordal and melodic textures to deep scoops and wild dives, all without wrecking your tuning.

An archtop for any style
Whether you play jazz, alt-country, or anything in between, the Godin 5th Avenue Custom is just the distinguished, tone-drenched guitar you've been looking for. Factor in the rustic-inspired beauty of its richly finished, figured Canadian wild cherry back and sides, and you've got a guitar reminiscent of yesterday, with all the stability of today.

Vintage class. Modern precision.
Godin's entire 5th Avenue lineup has been popular from the start and steadily catching fire ever since. That's because Godin is doing what few other guitar makers can claim - making quality instruments from solid materials and sound construction techniques, and offering them at more than reasonable prices. This goes doubly for the 5th Avenue Uptown Custom, whose archtop nature relies on an impressive balance of tension and tonewood characteristics. The result is a guitar that looks, plays, and sounds like it wandered straight out of the early mid-twentieth century, but is built to the tight tolerances only twenty-first-century technology can offer.

With the 5th Avenue Uptown Custom archtop, you get it all: classic craftsmanship, modern features, and amazing sound. If you want true pro quality for an almost unreasonably low price, then you owe yourself the chance to try out the Godin 5th Avenue Uptown Custom guitar.
