McLaughlin has been a Godin player for years and currently plays a Freeway SA live and in studio, as well as a Godin Passion RG-2. This model features 2x Custom Godin Humbuckers, Godin High-Definition Revoicer, 13-pin capabilities and USB output for recording & direct computer access. The RG-2 also features a spruce body and highly figured carved flame maple top, along with synchronized resonance chambers in the body making it incredibly lightweight and resonant.
