This is the premise of every guitar setup we undertake. If that means rejecting guitars and starting again - that is exactly what we do.
No Time To Watch the Videos? Here Is the Summary...
If you have bought a guitar before you will know all too well that not every guitar feels or plays the same. You may also know that due to the nature of the major component of the guitar (wood) that they can feel great one moment and awful the next (say for example after traveling half way around the globe on a boat - from some factory in the far east to the UK!)

Made in Canada
After over 30 years of hand-crafting award-winning multi-voice guitars, celebrated by players world-wide, we are proud to introduce the Godin Radium-X! Designed to be ultra versatile, the Godin Radium-X delivers both electric and acoustic tones, right at your fingertips!
Proudly made in Canada, this two-voice guitar features a chambered Mahogany body, carved Swamp Ash top, 25.5” scale Mahogany neck and Rosewood Fingerboard.
With a Seymour Duncan Jazz SH-2 at the neck and a Bare Knuckle Boot Camp True Grit Zebra at the bridge, the Radium-X is a powerhouse of tone. This diverse magnetic pickup combo is capable of delivering powerful, warm distortion to clear, glassy tones, appealing to a wide range of players and musical styles.
The Radium-X’s stunning acoustic voice comes courtesy of a custom-designed LR-Baggs X-Bridge tremolo with six built-in “HEX” saddle transducers.
This electronic combination can be controlled independently or blended together and offers an unprecedented range of electric-acoustic options to explore.
The Radium-X also incorporates dual output jacks that can be used as separate ‘electric/acoustic’ outs, or as a combined ‘mix’ out. It also has a traditional magnetic volume, tone and 3-way toggle, plus an ‘acoustic/mix/magnetic’ 3-way mini-selector and ‘acoustic volume/blend’ control to easily sculpt your sound.
Elevate your performance with the two-voice Radium-X!
