Members Cldplytkmn Posted October 30, 2005 Members Share Posted October 30, 2005 i really like those little cedar toppers... something i can envision being played at little folk jams in the 60s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cfgsteak Posted October 30, 2005 Members Share Posted October 30, 2005 Nice!!! I love my French Canadien guitar! Do you have 3 Godin's now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BigBaby Posted October 30, 2005 Members Share Posted October 30, 2005 Great guitar! An absolute steal for the price. Love the looks of the cherry and cedar combo and it sounds great too. Watch that cedar top. It will scratch if you look at it wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bringbckclinton Posted October 30, 2005 Members Share Posted October 30, 2005 nice, I played my first seagull a few weeks ago, liked it a lot. Cute cat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members leftync Posted October 30, 2005 Members Share Posted October 30, 2005 I'm a little afraid of cedar's delicate nature, but they do sound great right out of the box. I own two seagulls and they make a fine guitar. enjoy it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Veee number 2 Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Great guitar. I think Seagull S6 is the best under $500 guitar out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Misha Posted October 31, 2005 Author Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 If I could I would put a scratch plate that covers the whole top! I don't own 3 Godin's... I changed my electric for the S6+ Folk... Because i found out I love acoustic much more! I have no patience to play with effects, or amps every 5 minutes and my fingers are fine now! I went back to the store and got an exchange. Lost 0$!!! (Actually, the manager put a note on the SD after I gave it back saying "SOLD!! with his name on it! lol) I paid 369$ CAD for the Godin SD, they gave me the Seagull S6 Folk + a gig bag + Dunlop trigger capo + added a pin for a strap (another dealer told me it would be 20$ to add a pin on my Norman B20 Folk + the cost of the pin!) My B20 can now go for repair (bracing)! The Seagull will do the job nicely meanwhile. I'll keep one for altered tunings when the B20 is gonna be back! Anyway,, I like them both and they sounds very different! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members themusicdude Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 i like the way those sound, but those necks are just really uncomfortable to me... shame too because otherwise i'd have several. -am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mrlucky7 Posted October 31, 2005 Members Share Posted October 31, 2005 Congrats Misha ! Great guitar ! I actually saw Arianne Moffat play one on TV yesterday. I think you'll love the cedar top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members deevee Posted November 7, 2005 Members Share Posted November 7, 2005 :thu: My favorite body style of Seagull acoustics! Great choice! Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Laserpuls Posted November 8, 2005 Members Share Posted November 8, 2005 Very nice guitar, Misha. At one stage I wanted to by one for use in alternate tuning; but then again I wanted to change from the cedar sound of my Seagull S6+CW, so I bought an old Sovereign 1203 and a Hashimoto W350 for the same price, had them set up properly, so I could cover a range of acoustic styles according to my needs.But Seagull IS a great guitar for the price, sweet sounding box. Beware of the cat though: cedar scratches so easily... Vulnerable front. Still, I didn't buy the Seagull to keep it in the box; it's a player's guitar.Have fun!

The Norman is gone for repair (small bracing issue), when I'll get it back I'll use one for alternate tuning too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Laserpuls Posted November 8, 2005 Members Share Posted November 8, 2005 Sounds like you will have best of both worlds then, Misha. Very good combination. I found my Seagull not so well set up for alternate tuning, yet very well adjusted and in tone for standard tuning. If I wanted it right for DADGAD tuning I should have had a new saddle. So I decided to go ventilate my GAS and bought the Sovereign (repair and setup costed more than the guitar) and set up the Hashimoto Martin D41-clone for DADGAD tuning myself. I could've bought a Baby Taylor for the price, but hey, what's GAS for? Besides, the latest two are older guitars, that has some charm too . Have fun!
