Own a piece of guitar history with the Norman by Godin B-150 Anniversary Limited Edition Acoustic-Electric Guitar in stunning Vintage Burst finish. This commemorative instrument celebrates 150 years of La Patrie, Quebec, where Robert Godin began his legendary guitar-making journey in 1972. With only 150 units produced worldwide, this guitar represents the pinnacle of Canadian craftsmanship and Quebec's rich lutherie tradition.
Product Overview
The Norman B-150 Anniversary Edition showcases exceptional craftsmanship using carefully selected tonewoods from a special stock stored in Godin's facilities for over thirty years. The solid Sitka spruce top delivers crisp, articulate highs and balanced midrange response, while the Canadian Wild Cherry back and sides provide a unique tonal character with warm, woody overtones rarely found in acoustic guitars. This distinctive tonewood combination creates a voice that's both powerful and nuanced.
The classic dreadnought body shape ensures robust projection and full-bodied sound perfect for both fingerpicking and strumming techniques. The high-gloss finish in Vintage Burst creates an elegant aesthetic that highlights the natural beauty of the premium tonewoods. The mahogany neck features a comfortable profile that facilitates smooth playability across the 16-inch radius rosewood fingerboard.
Each B-150 is personally hand-signed by Robert and Simon Godin, making every instrument a collector's piece. The LR Baggs Element electronics system provides authentic acoustic tone for stage and studio applications. A cedar certificate of authenticity shaped like a guitar pick accompanies each guitar, emphasizing its exclusivity and historical significance.
