Nice too see, it's already listed on the Godin website.
Now we only need to find out it's price ;-)
BTW ... sounds nearly exactly as the Glissentar, but that baby is in guitar tuning, so the MultiOud is more tempting. Especially because we can continue to use our favorite strings
too.
PS: The only thing I don't like is the ugly mandoline like peg box. But we all know, how expensive planetary oud pegs are. So they did it to keep the
costs down.

Bonjour,
I don't know the multioud price, but the glissentar is sold 950$ (Amazon.com) :

Yes, I know, thanks. In Germany I would pay around 1000-1100€
I expect the Multioud below 1500€, but we'll see.

Well I have had one for about three days now and find it very hard to put down.
I am loving it- I am talking about the multi-oud not to be confused with the glissentar (did not like it) and the fretless classical
guitar (have not tried it).
I am going to write a a full review for you shortly (early this coming week) and post it here.
It short I think there are some wonderful innovations and so far I thouroughly enjoy playing it. I also have a Godin multiac nylon and the LG-SA
electric guitar . I think they are all exceptional instruments.

I'll have to find one in the UK to try - for me the acoustic oud is such an amazing instrument to feel and play that I would have to not expect the
same from something like thing - but it looks so interesting.

There are some other clips of the multi-oud that sound more oud like,
http://www.muzicosphere.com/geek-de-zic/5049?lang=en
It's just another option in the amplified oud market. The built in electronics are both a blessing and a curse, and John Bilezikjian's been playing
ouds with guitar bridges mounted on them, with a custom pickup system for eons. The fact that a mainstream manafacturer has brought one out -- that's
a trip. Very interesting price point too !

The guy who does the demos for Godin should stick to demoing sruti boxes, electric sitars and glissentars. It's impossible to even roughly anticipate
the timbre of the multiOud based on his playing.
And yes, Monsieur Robe'r God'ahn has earned my deepest and long-lasting antipathy for the way he markets and talks to the kiddies about the primitive
oud with its tuning problems and all, compared to his magnifeeq masheen!
That's not to say this couldn't make a good electric stage oud, it could be very useful.
