John Bohlinger demos the all-new Godin Guitars Multiac Mundial, a modern, Canadian-made nylon-string guitar designed to push the envelope for live and in-studio performance.
Godin Multiac Mundial
Thirty years ago, we introduced the Multiac Nylon SA, which quickly became a worldwide success and the flagship instrument of Godin Guitars. Since then, we have continued to innovate in order to offer different variations of the Multiac in order to accommodate different players and styles of music. For 2023, we are extremely proud to introduce the new Godin Multiac Mundial.
Available in a variety of colours, the Multiac Mundial is made in our Canadian factories with the same high standards as our other instruments. A more modern and stylish variation of our other Multiacs, this nylon-string guitar is the result of years of research and development. To achieve the most natural acoustic sound possible, we've returned to our hollow-body design, so the guitar is lighter, breathes, and resonates without feedback. The Godin Double Source Custom preamp, the same as on the Encore models, allows you to mix the under saddle pickup with the sensors in the guitar for maximum versatility. The Multiac Mundial sets itself apart with its Canadian Silver Leaf Maple body, select solid Cedar top, and Spanish Cedar neck, making it notably lighter, well balanced, and tonally complex.
If you are looking to push the envelope of nylon-string guitar performance, either live or in a studio setting, look no further than the Multiac Mundial.

In the annals of Gibson Les Paul players, Charlie Starr is an under-the-radar aficionado. Starr’s stable over the course of his career with southern-rock group Blackberry Smoke has been stocked with some of the sharpest old-school LPs on earth, and he’s got a particular predilection for Juniors.
But what sets one Paul apart from another? Starr, Rhett, and Zach go down every rabbithole in their hunt to nail down what makes a particular Gibson great, including misconceptions around P-90s and their relationship to PAFs, Juniors versus Standards, and whether wood and total construction have a big impact on tone. Some players argue that the sound is all in the pickups; tune in to learn why the trio thinks that theory is bunk, right down to the last, least consequential cap.
Plus, find out when Starr thinks Gibson perfected the Les Paul’s neck shape and bridge positioning, how top-wrapping impacts your sound, and a foolproof way to I.D. a legit, vintage PAF. (If it’s original, it’s gonna stink.)
