Key Features
The Concert Hall Shape
The Legacy features a Concert Hall body, a size revered by blues players and folk musicians for its focused projection and comfort.1 It delivers a balanced sound with a robust bottom end, punchy midrange, and clear, defined highs. Whether you are playing on a front porch or a stage, this shape allows you to “fill the room” without the bulk of a dreadnought.
Distinctive Canadian Tonewoods
Art & Lutherie is known for using locally sourced Canadian woods to create unique tonal signatures.2
-
Solid Cedar Top: Provides warmth and instant responsiveness, making it perfect for fingerpicking and light strumming.3
-
Canadian Wild Cherry Back & Sides: A unique tonewood that sits sonically between the mellow tone of mahogany and the bright clarity of maple, giving the guitar a rich, articulate voice.4
Vintage Aesthetics and Feel
Finished in a stunning Semi-Gloss Bourbon Burst, this guitar looks like it has stories to tell right out of the box. The Silver Leaf Maple neck features a comfortable 1.72″ (43.68 mm) nut width, making open chords and intricate fretting easy on the hands.5 The Rosewood fingerboard and bridge add a touch of classic elegance and tonal warmth.
Stage Ready
According to the manufacturer: Ideally suited for the performing musician, this model is designed to be the perfect stage companion.6 (Note: While the body resonates beautifully on its own, models in this series are often “equipped with optional Godin electronics” to amplify that vintage tone effortlessly).
