Godin Exit 22 Solid Body Electric Guitar (Natural Mahogany RN) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought my Godin Exit 22 as my "return" instrument after taking up guitar again after a twenty-something year break. Here's what I can tell you: This is a great guitar, made even better by a very reasonable price. As it came off the rack, action was set a bit high and intonation was a little off, but after having it set up by my local tech, all is well. Been playing it for hours every day for almost two years now - mostly blues and rock & roll - and feel like I am finally growing into it. 24 3/4 scale makes for easy, slinky bends - so more of a Gibson touch to this guitar.
Sound is wonderful through my Roland modeling amp, with solid, clear, clean tones from the single coil bridge and middle pups and as much nasty growl as one wants through the bridge humbucker. (I tend to play with the bass on the low end, but there is plenty of bottom-end available if that lights you up.)
Easy and comfortable reach of the upper frets is enhanced by some thoughtful sculpting around the neck pocket. You run into some smooth curves rather than a vertical wall a la Fender.
I could go on and on. Most important is that this is a solid guitar at a very, very reasonable price with plenty of room to grow. Oh, and the satin maple neck has gotten faster, while the mahogany body has gotten prettier with age and playing, so an added plus...

Godin's Exit 22 features a solid mahogany body and a rock maple neck, and was the first Godin guitar to combine a 24 3/4-inch scale with Godin's new 22-fret neck, a combination that delivers in both the comfort and sound departments. Monstrous distortion tones are easily dialed in via the Godin humbucker in the bridge, and stinging clean sounds are also at your fingertips, thanks to the Godin single-coil pickups in the neck and middle position. The Exit 22 is finished with a semi-gloss finish that gives it a beautiful understated look.


Mahogany Body
The Exit 22's natural mahogany finish looks great, to be sure. Of course it's a classic body wood, delivering a warm, harmonically rich sound to match those good looks.
One Godin GHB1 humbucker and two Godin GS1 single-coil pickups, along with a five-way switch for serious tonal options.
