Godin Guitars has announced the launch of the Derry Grehan Signature Tread 1 as part of its high quality guitar lineup. The instrument remains true to Godin’s high quality build and design innovation standards. As the main songwriter and lead guitarist for Platinum selling and Juno Award winning (Canada’s Grammys) band Honeymoon Suite, Derry’s iconic“Tread” guitar is instantly recognizable.
Made entirely in Canada to Derry’s specifications, the TR-1 is truly an iconic Canadian collaboration. With Derry’s unique“Tread” custom graphics, EMG 85 (bridge) and EMG SLV (neck) pickups and Floyd Rose Locking Trem and nut, the TR-1 made to rock!
The body features a Silver Leaf Maple center block with Poplar wings, a 25.5” scale Maple neck and fingerboard. This clever combination gives the TR-1 killer tone and outstanding playability.
“I’m so proud to be a part of the Godin Signature Model line of guitars. The attention to detail and fine craftsmanship on my new TR-1 Tread guitar is second to none. The team at Godin has really nailed it on this one! I love the guitar…..and you will too!” Derry Grehan
About Derry : Throughout world tours with ZZ Top, Heart and Cheap Trick to name a few, Godin has been along for the ride. Lately Honeymoon Suite has been back in the studio recording a new album following their 2020 billboard charting single “Find What You’re Looking For”. Once again, Derry counted on his original Tread guitar with custom Godin neck. That’s when a chance encounter at a Namm show inspired Godin to collaborate with Derry on a limited Edition Godin Signature model.
