Godin DS-1 Daryl Stuermer Signature Electric Guitar

Lovely lovely guitar at a great price with great service and set up to match. It is such a shame that Godin has discontinued the TRIC case that used to come with these guitars.

Really appreciated being able to have the time to play and compare a number of guitars -of which the Godin just felt and sounded right for me. Really enjoying it! Thanks to Jon for looking after us on our visit. Best guitar buying experience I’ve had.

Guitar arrived on time, well packaged and perfectly set up by Richards Guitars. I don't know why I haven't bought an archtop before although I have many solid bodies. This is now my favourite guitar despite having several that cost many times what I paid for the Godin. Very pleased with the purchase and the service.

Nice addition to the collection- plays very easily with a good feel to it

At first I was disappointed but this guitar grew on me and I began to appreciated the quality of this guitar

I can’t thank Richard’s Guitar enough as they were so helpful and patient throughout the purchase process. Initially I was a little disappointed with the finish on the guitar but I now have got used tho this and it is a really quality guitar with good quality fitted hardware. I will certainly use Richard’s Guitar again.

Having played Classical guitars (traditional Spanish style) for may years, when playing/performing live with mic's or pick-ups the sound was basically okay, but I needed a great sounding Nylon strung Classical Guitar with an amplified sound. Hence my recent purchase.
Wow! This Godin Grand Concert is fantastic.
Acoustically it pumps out a surprisingly high volume and a wonderful range of tones, however when plugged in, it is in a league of its own! The pre-amp helps create different colours and can be adjusted to suite different styles.
I highly recommend this guitar if you want a nylon classical guitar with attitude!
P.S. The service from Richards Guitars was excellent.

Thanks to all at Richards guitars for helping me find the right choice for me. I was looking for a nylon string guitar which plays well both acoustically and amplified and the Godin meets the brief perfectly. And thanks to the team for dissuading me from going for a more expensive model than I really needed.
It was so nice to be left alone to try the options and the set-up service is a fantastic added extra

Excellent website and communications
Item arrived as promised and by a professional courier service
Thanks!

Very fine guitar. Teamed with a Boss Katana it goes all the way from acoustic to jazz tones to hard rock. It took a while to arrive from Canada, but it was worth the wait. I would definitely recommend it.

Had been looking for something like this Godin for a while.
Very nicely set up, and a great delivery time considering it was all done and dusted during lock down.
Thoroughly recommended. Thanks Guys .

Really pleased with the whole experience . . . from the excellent web site to the guitar being delivered. The set up made a difference the guitar turned up, tuned up, switched on . . . . it's that easy. Anyone looking to have an arch top experience; the Godin is a great starting point, easy to play, it's got that great look and it ain't costing the earth.

Came well setup, well packaged and arrived in a timely manner. Customer service was flawless from beginning to end.

The guitar itself is surprisingly well built. Someone in the Godin finishing department got a little trigger happy and finished the side dots in a nice translucent brown, but aside from that, the fit and finish is FAR better than it has any right to be at this price point.

I have no hesitation about recommending both Godin instruments and Richards Guitars

2011 I bought this Guitar online at Richards shop, very well set up, and send to my home in Germany, the service was perfect!!! The following months I had some ideas to change the guitar-sound: I built in a bone-saddle and a wooden bridge. I installed the P90 near the bridge. On the empty place (where the P90 was before) I put a flowting AZoller pickup. I use Thomastik-Infeld Jazz-Swing 12. strings. The sound of this guitar is fantastic. Thanks to Richard and his Team!!!!

Fabulous guitar, great pro set up by Richard & his staff. Very helpful with customer questions. All in all, first class. Thanks Richard.
Hope to pop in to thank you soon

The best custumer service have ever had in my life before! With me Richard has always been 5 stars!

I have not received any guitar. You have not returned my calls, but you have got my money. How do you want me to respond to this feedback request? I suggest you contact me urgently on [****] since you will not respond to my calls.

excellent service and product

My favorite guitar of all time? Maybe. Anyway, right now I don't play any of my other guitars.
