Basswood body with two resonance chambers
The body and neck follow Godin’s popular A5 design, offering a clever balance of acoustic and electric tones with top-notch playability. The Canadian basswood body features two resonance chambers, adding an airy acoustic character to the instrument’s core sound. The bolt-on maple neck, shaped in a classic C profile with traditional dimensions, delivers a familiar feel and ensures smooth fretting across the 20-fret rosewood fingerboard.
Pickups from L. R. Baggs and Lace Sensor
The Godin A5 Ultra Rob Trujillo Yellow Flame RN Limited Edition excels in both acoustic and electric tones thanks to its powerful combination of piezo and magnetic pickups. The piezo pickup, crafted by industry leader L.R. Baggs, is specially designed for this model. Meanwhile, the magnetic pickup is a Lace Sensor Low-Profile positioned at the bridge. Both pickups feature separate outputs, allowing the Godin A5 Ultra Rob Trujillo to deliver both sound sources simultaneously.
