Combined with neck or bridge pickup you also don't get the classic 'out of phase' tones that you expect from a Strat.

It's jangly, reasonably bright and is a great for rhythm parts where you need a nice acoustic-like tone. In the middle position, the Cajun pickup does not deliver the warm slightly compressed tones of a Tele neck pickup. Gained up through our JAM Tubedreamer there is plenty of rock crunch and sizzle, although without the heavy bottom end of an all-mahogany guitar. Overall it's a very resonant guitar with a lot natural acoustic tone. As mentioned, they a cleaner and leaner than usual, and single coil players will be pleasantly surprised with the note separation and chime. Selecting the neck and bridge pickups you get much of what you might expect out of those positions. Compared to the other two pickups, the Cajun pickup is down a bit on output, and it also serves a different role than the middle pickup in a Strat might play. They are direct mount, so any pickup output balancing is accomplished with the middle pickup. You won't find the dark and woody tones of a mahogany set neck guitar, and the medium output humbucker pickups have a lot of bite and definition. The basswood body combined with a maple set neck and wrap tailpiece creates a punchy and clean platform for the Godin humbucker and Cajun Tele-style pickups. Looking somewhat like the ultimate 'Partscaster' the Godin Radium combines a multitude of influences to create a surprisingly broad array of tones.
