It's a mater of taste I love the sound of Gordon Smiths and would love their LP "Copy" (Graduate/G60). I've heard GSs up close [still yet to play one] and love their sound but never knowingly heard a Godin [i think the Radiators have "p90s" on them :confused:]- which have a good rep and everbody talks favourably about them, you could try taking your GS to the shop and testing it against a Godin.

Alternatively, sell me your GS for 50 quid and use the money for a down payment..:D
