Norman - B150 Guitar 150th anniversary

In 2025, the village of La Patrie is celebrating its 150th anniversary. To mark this historic milestone, we have imagined a truly exceptional instrument: the Norman B150, a limited edition guitar designed and crafted in the very heart of where it all began.

It was in 1972 that Robert Godin built his very first guitars in La Patrie, Quebec. This small village quickly became the birthplace of a unique expertise, recognized far beyond our borders. Today, more than fifty years later, we pay tribute to the tradition and passion that continue to drive us.

The B150 embodies everything Norman stands for: a deep connection to our roots, an unwavering commitment to quality, and a desire to share Quebec’s craftsmanship with the world. Made from carefully selected tonewoods, part of a special stock stored in our facilities for over thirty years, this guitar stands out for its authenticity, rich sound, and refined, understated aesthetics.

Each instrument is hand signed by Robert and Simon Godin, a testament to their personal dedication to this unique project. A cedar certificate of authenticity, shaped like a guitar pick, accompanies each guitar and further emphasizes its exclusivity.

Only 150 units of the Norman B150 will be produced, a heartfelt tribute to a village, a family, and a passion that has endured for over half a century.
