Godin Bolt on has glued tenon parallel to top
There is a pocket in a block below the soundboard that a mortise fits into. It has glue on the sides and bottom that looks like epoxy. This took me four hours to removed

Seagull’s have the same issue seeing its the same company. I have learned to either avoid them, or charge an arm and a leg for the reset.

Great info! Thanks for sharing. I think I’ll steer clear of these as well, just like Guilds!

I’m not sure the following applies to all Godin family guitars, but there is information online that the factory switched to this type of joint around 2006 on Seagull brand models. I can confirm that I worked on a 2005 Seagull S6 that did not have an epoxied-in tenon like this, just a bolt on joint.
