Art & Lutherie is a Canadian acoustic guitar brand established in 1995 as part of the Godin Guitars family of companies, founded by Robert Godin. The line is built in Princeville, Québec, where a team of luthiers crafts instruments using Canadian tonewoods such as wild cherry, maple, and walnut. Art & Lutherie was created as a more accessible companion line to Godin's other acoustic brands, including Simon & Patrick and Seagull, with an emphasis on resonant, broken-in sound at an entry-level price point.
The range centers on a small group of body shapes, including the parlor-sized Roadhouse, the dreadnought-style Americana, and the Legacy. Most models pair a solid cedar top with three-layer wild cherry back and sides, a construction approach the company associates with quick string response and a warm midrange. Finishes tend toward matte, semi-gloss, and faded color treatments meant to evoke a vintage, road-worn aesthetic.
Art & Lutherie guitars are commonly recommended in beginner and intermediate buyer's guides as a Canadian-made alternative to imported budget acoustics, and they appear regularly in folk, singer-songwriter, and acoustic blues contexts.
Art & Lutherie has 24 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Acoustic-Electric Guitars, Steel-string Acoustic Guitars, and Classical & Nylon-String Guitars. Their gear is featured by 11 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Pop, and Folk, World, & Country. Notable users include Mac DeMarco, Lee Ranaldo, and Mario Camarena. Most Art & Lutherie products fall in the mid-tier range — professional-grade without flagship pricing.
