We'd need an archtop-playing AGF member with both a high profile (for credibility with the Godin people) and the time/desire to do it - we have a few of the former (Jonathan Stout, Fabio Mittino, and Rob MacKillop come quickly to mind) and plenty of the latter here on the Archtop subforum, but offhand I can't think of anyone who possesses both credentials...

That said, if a club buy could be arranged for under $1K each w/HSC (TMK the Jumbo requires a unique size available only from Godin) I'm in - and make mine a bourbon burst...
