La Patrie Hybrid CW Black Nylon String Guitar
The Hybrid CW is the nylon stringed guitar for the modern player who, like most of us, is not necessarily a classical guitarist. As the name suggests, the Hybrid is certainly a guitar from mixed origins and was born of a fusion of tradition and innovation.

Hand-crafted in LaPatrie Quebec, this smooth sounding acoustic-electric gem features a solid cedar top, mahogany back & sides, mahogany neck in a gorgeous black finish. The rosewood fingerboard has a classical style with a 2" (5.1 cm) nut width. However, this classical nut width won't seem so traditional when the player feels the unique radiused fingerboard, not only allowing for faster playability but also for a new level of comfort not readily available on a standard classical nylon string fingerboard. Although the Hybrid's neck width and string spacing are to classical guitar standards a truss rod allows for a thinner neck profile. Besides the new comfort of the radiused fingerboard, the Hybrid CW also allows for access to the upper frets via the cutaway body. Some other esthetic goodies include cream binding, a detailed sound-hole rosette and a hand finished, contoured headstock. As with all acoustic models in the Godin family only genuine lacquer finish is used, allowing the top to breathe and vibrate freely. This strong belief in applying genuine lacquer translates into a guitar that will experience and benefit from the aging process...the more the instrument is played, the better it will sound over time.

For the gigging/working musician the Hybrid CW comes standard issue with Godin Quantum II electronics and the innovative TRIC (Thermal regulated instrument case) case to thermally protect and securely house the Hybrid CW.
