    That Cordoba sounds less piezo-y, although still not quite like a mic'd guitar.

      Must be something in the air- Godin came out with an electric nylon today, too.

        It sounds nice, but it has an electric neck nut width and radius. I do not know if I would be comfortable playing with nylon strings on an electric neck. And it has a $1400 price tag. If all were priced the same, I think I would still lean toward the Cordoba.

          I'd be interested in a steel string alternative to the Acoustisonic Strats out there. I currently use a Godin Multiac Steel and a Variax Acoustic (which has a convincing electric nylon sound).

            Mm, Godin has been in the electric nylon game for quite a time with the Multiac.

            In the end, it's down to the pickups used, I suppose, and timbre preferences. If it comes to pups for a nylon string, a transducer like a K&K sounds better to me (more natural) than conventional piezo.

              I always liked their A6

              https://godinguitars.com/product/a6-ultra-natural-sg
              The A6 Ultra continues with the innovative concepts found in all Godin A-series guitars, such as combining amazing plugged-in acoustic sound with the feel of an electric neck, along with a chambered body design that virtually eliminates feedback in live & loud settings. These features stand true and better than ever in the A6 Ultra
