Seagull (company) Seagull (company) Seagull is a Canadian company and sub-brand of Godin Guitars that produces acoustic guitars. The company was originally located in La Patrie, a small village in the Eastern Townships of Quebec and founded in 1982 by Robert Godin and a few of his friends. Seagull guitars feature a headstock which places the tuning machines roughly in line with the nut to improve tuning stability. Most models are available with either the Godin Quantum I electronics (featuring an under saddle transducer) or the Godin Quantum II electronics (with both a transducer and small microphone which can be blended together).
